About this Resource

Taking medicine can trigger intense gustatory and olfactory defensiveness. For the 1 in 36 children with autism and those with sensory processing differences, a bad taste isn't just unpleasant—it is a full-body assault. I wrote this book to help parents and kids navigate this stressful routine. I introduce sensory-friendly hacks, like ice cubes and safe chasers, in a highly visual, non-threatening format. This book gives your child a sense of control over their sensory experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

I focused primarily on liquid medicine and the sensory aversion to strong tastes and textures.
Extremely. I make sure the child knows that their sensory experience is real and not just "bad behavior."
