Eye Contact Approximation Activities and Visual Supports

  • $3.50


Some children struggle to make 'eye contact' when engaging in conversation with others. This may cause discomfort, confusion or misunderstandings with others. 

Whether we are the speaker or the listener, it is expected that we “look at” the person we are engaging with. However, for some children, making eye contact is not only difficult, but physically very uncomfortable. I work with a lot of children for whom this is the case.

I developed these supports to help children approximate eye contact by practicing 'pointing/aiming their eyes' or 'pointing/aiming their words' toward the other person's face. 

These activities are appropriate and enjoyable for boys and girls k-5th grade, who need support to improve this skill.
