When it comes to hugging, many kids struggle knowing when to ask for a hug, how to ask for one, and how to tell a hug is ending. This free printable hugging social story is a great tool for helping your autistic kids learn all about hugging. It includes asking for permission/consent first too.
About the Free Printable Social Story
This social story explains how to give and receive hugs. It describes how to tell a hug is ending, how to ask for a hug, how to ask if you can give a hug, and so much more. A special shout out to one of my readers, Emma, for requesting this particular social story!
I highly suggest laminating the social story for durability. You can use binder rings to keep the social story together or store it in a binder. As an alternative to laminating, you could use sheet protectors in a binder. Or if you find yourself printing off lots of social stories, then this binding machine is a lifesaver!
