Beach Picture Cards

Mention the word "beach" to a parent of a child with autism and get ready to hear some stories! From wet bathing suits to sticky sunscreen to hot sand, the beach has a lot of sensory challenges, but some kids with autism still love it.  Taking a vacation near the beach involves a lot of planning and prepping, and that's where picture cards can help a lot. 

I hope these tools are helpful for your next trip.  Here's a packing list I use.
