Whether your wanting to turn your candles into puzzle piece tarts or any kind of tarts below you will find out exactly what to do! These steps are to guide you through to making these lovely tarts! I made puzzle piece tarts in honor of my daughter who has Autism. Each of my candles have been melted down and turned into puzzle pieces. You see, Autism is like a puzzle but not all the pieces fit. Everyday we strive to put all the pieces together. Each time I melt a puzzle piece tart I not only fill my home with a wonderful fragrant smell of my choosing, I honor my daughter and the struggles she faces. You may choose to use the same mold as I have or a different one in which you will find out where to get them below. First lets get you started on how to make them.

Cool Gel N Cap - Kids Cold & Warm Compress Review!
Cool Gel N Cap is the hands free solution for kids ice packs and hot & cold packs. The first aid cap for kids hot & cold packs are non toxic & latex free, so they can be used anywhere it hurts, head to toe. They're great for insect bites and stings. Also, Cool Gel N Cap is more comfortable on the head for your child than ice packs or especially a bag of frozen vegetables as the fabric is designed to let the cold and warm therapy get through while eliminating the condensation of normal ice packs.

Zingo!® Time-telling Game Review!
Telling time is one of the hardest things to master when your young. Some adults haven't even mastered the art of time. The key to understanding how time works is to teach as early as possible. No matter where you go anywhere in the entire world, time is used regardless of the language used. In fact the only difference across the globe is the time of day. Teaching your child time can be a bit overwhelming for both you and your child, so why not make it a fun game. Not only do they catch on quicker but everyone has fun while learning!!

FREE Printable Brushing Teeth & Washing Hands Steps Visual Cues!
Some children struggle more than others when it comes to understanding everyday tasks. Visual cues can be a great asset to these children in guiding them through. My daughter whom happens to have Autism thrives from using visual cues to coordinate her routines and guide her along the way. They also help her communicate because she cannot directly tell me. I set up visual cues at our sink for her to use to guide her through washing her hands and also brushing her teeth. I have seen such a tremendous benefit from them I thought I would customize them and provide them for you to print for free and make yourself!

Your well aware of Autism but others have barely an idea of what we go through. Unless your directly exposed to Autism, it can be truly hard to understand from the outside looking in. That's what awareness is for. To let individuals inside our world so they can understand what Autism is all about. Autism stays with individuals their entire life and effects each person differently. You see, Autism is a huge spectrum of functionality levels all based around the same key roots. Effecting social interactions, communication, behaviors and more in every individual with Autism. Statistics states that currently 1 in every 42 boys and 1 in every 189 girls is diagnosed with Autism. That is just the tole in the United States. Autism is all over the world, hence "World Autism Awareness Day". Today people like me and my family join together to spread awareness to help you understand our world. Don't let today be the only day you think about Autism. Go out and learn all you can and spread awareness every day.
*Autism parent, grandparent, relative or friend? There are great support groups within your community, Facebook groups ready to talk about anything, seminars to explore ASD, and the bonus is most all are free and from the comfort of your home.
