Julie,
Thanks so much for sharing your book photos and social stories! I made a book with pecs for our trip last year. We are considering another trip this fall and I will need to add a few things. I definitely agree with you about the wind down time. DS needed time to chill out with his spinner toy or Video Now Jr. We also took a break midday at first aid so he could lie down out of his wheelchair and watch his video now.
Last trip we had two meltdowns due to crowds and noise. This time I want to be better prepared. You've given me some great ideas!
Thanks I am truly touched and humbled by so many wonderful comments. It is joy to be supported by so many and be helpful in return!
Julie, we also live in the Chicago burbs and have found your suggestions so helpful. I am not creative but being able to see how you organized the books for your son is a huge help. We leave next Saturday and I'm excited to have an idea of how to organize our PECS and schedules into a more meaningful arrangement.
I have to tell you, I have searched high and low for good PECS pictures for the different parts of the park and they have been hard to find. If you were to organize your pictures and stories by park or area of Disneyworld and then offer them for a fee I know there are people who would gladly pay.
Thanks for sharing what you did!

Well thanks and just now you don't have to be "creative" to make some wonderful and loving to help your child....
Finding all the pic's and putting all the details together was long I admit but worth it. I am happy to share.
