Cooking with kids with ASD


Want to get your child with autism spectrum disorder involved in the kitchen? Cooking with kids helps to ground their learning through the use of fractions, addition and subtraction, and measuring. Check out "Let's Cook!" a fun website that uses multimedia (videos, slides, images and text) to show how kids with autism can learn life skills through making foods they love. The site even offers outtakes to demonstrate this teacher's use of redirection when issues with the child arises.
