wonderful way to improve social skills

May 11, 2012 2:55 PM Share

Recently I read in an article talking about video modelling as a tool to improve social skills for the children lacking it. According to this a small skit is enacted by two people focussing on the skill reqiured by the child. For example, if the child needs to be taught the behaviours to attend a birthday party, this will be enacted by two or more people and the child is made to watch the video number of times. I suppose this an alternative for the social stories and gets better understanding about the situation.

Can u pls share those links which contains such videos or any key search word that will fetch them. Main problem with my kid is behaviour in public places especailly when she is with us. In school somehow she is able to conduct herself much better.
