As we near the end of a challenging year for everyone, we are pleased to accept this blog from Kathleen Carter of Educator Labs. Here is what Kathleen says:
As an educator, it’s so rewarding to work with children of all abilities, especially those with special needs. I’ve worked with many kids over the years with physical disabilities and conditions like autism, and it’s brought me immense joy watching them shine, so I truly appreciate sites like yours that advocate for children who are differently-abled! To show my support to families, teachers, and childcare providers who guide these little ones, I’m sending you some information that may be a helpful for visitors seeking information on how to provide the best care to a child with special needs:
