Managing Fixations: Interests Can Become Vocations for Kids With Special Needs by Paula Bendfeldt-Diaz

Every child has strengths, passions and interests. Many children with special needs have what are considered fixations. That is the case with my 4-year-old who is obsessed with trains. Instead of trying to discourage this, I channel it into learning opportunities because interests and talents can easily develop into careers with a little direction. 

• All of his train tracks give him room to be creative.
• We read books on how trains work. 
• We visit train museums. 
• He loves building LEGO trains.
• He enjoys drawing complex tracks. 

I am certain that I have a future engineer on my hands!
