My experience as a teacher and a mum inspire me to create resources that support educators and appeal to children with special educational needs, particularly autism and ADHD. My eldest son’s autism and ADHD have taught me a lotand here I share what I hope will engage others who learn differently and help those who are teaching them either in the classroom or at home. I love creating visual and hands-on activities that make learning more playful.
