Look at minimizing as organizing.

Tips if your child with Autism can’t speak:

Start with numbers then 1-5, then 1-10
- Try whisper the numbers.
- Do something fun on 5 & 10 (tickle, hug or smile)
- Say “Yay” at end of counting.
- Count with both your words and fingers.
- Reward your kid when they count with their fingers saying “Good Job“ show excitement and rub back if they like that.
- Count everything you do. Here are some examples:
  - When putting socks on “One sock, two socks.”
  - When putting snacks out “1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10”
Use sign language with words
- Start with reward words like: Milk, Food, More, Up.
