Warm Fleece Robe

Warm Fleece Robe

Get wrapped up in the luxury of this ultra-plush bathrobe! This lavish bathrobe is made with soft, inviting coral fleece and features a classic shawl collar and two front pockets. Feel the warmth at your neck and keep your hands warm in its deep pockets. Stay cozy on chilly evenings and relax in softness, this product is a luxurious gift for parents who needed that extra premium feel.




The Conscious Parent Book


The Conscious Parent Book

As they say, parenting is one of the hardest but most rewarding jobs in the world. And this book is designed to help you become the best parent possible. Filled with valuable tips and guidance on how to cultivate an atmosphere of love, understanding, and acceptance in your home, it will help you become essence-orientated rather than behavior-orientated. It covers 'Higher Self' parenting as well as how to foster communication between both parents and children that encourages confident expression of feelings and beliefs. I was able to connect at a deeper level with my child using this book.




The Code of the Extraordinary Mind Book


The Code of the Extraordinary Mind Book

Take control of your happiness with this comprehensive personal growth book, designed to help you gain a better understanding of yourself while curating inner peace, uncovering values, and learning how they shape your thoughts and decision-making. This book does not specifically talk about Autism at all,

but I highly recommend it because of its thought-provoking insights geared towards developing self-awareness, resilience, and breaking society’s BS rules. These things, in effect, help a spectrum parent see their child’s potential instead of limiting their lives based on what we see as “normal”.





Yoga for the Special Child Book



Yoga for the Special Child Book

This book is a comprehensive guide to operating a successful at-home yoga program specifically geared to special needs. This book will help parents to open up a world of therapeutic approaches for growth and development that can be available through yoga-based techniques. While tons of yoga videos are available on YouTube, this will give you all the confidence you need to start your at-home yoga. It has step-by-step instructions with photos on how to do yoga therapies detailing postures divided into age ranges.

Gifts Fit for Kids in the Spectrum


First 100 Board Book


First 100 Board Book

A fun and engaging board book, First 100 introduces children to beginning words and language. With bright colors and unique illustrations, this box set provides a great way for kids to be more engaged in learning new words, and reinforces early language skills by introducing the first 100 words in multiple categories: animals, shapes, and more! This book definitely will help increase early language skills, prompting children to point and talk. Ideal for story time, bedtime, or anytime fun!



The Play-Doh Fun Factory Deluxe Set



The Play-Doh Fun Factory Deluxe Set

The Play-Doh Set lets kids create fascinating shapes with the press of a button. Kids can use the classic crank tool to extrude silly pasta, create animal shapes, and do anything else they can think up. This is a must to inspire creative playtime and develop fine motor skills – squeezing, rolling, cutting and shaping. I recommend making it simple and don’t overindulge the child with tons of Play-dohs in different colors. Introduce tools one at a time (that means about 3-5 tools or shaper in every Play-doh time).


Osmo: Award-Winning Educational Games

A thoughtful relative presented my son with an Osmo, a renowned collection of educational games and activities. This remarkable gift not only captivated his interest but also provided a valuable educational experience. Osmo seamlessly blends technology and learning, offering an exceptional example of how screen time can be genuinely enriching for children. With its award-winning status, this interactive platform ensures that my son's screen time is not just entertaining but also educational, fostering his cognitive and creative development.
