Hyperlexic kids have lots of intense fascinations and one passion that is particularly popular is space (see # 7 on this list).

For instance, my hyperlexic son went through a couple of periods where he was over-the-moon with all things space. In terms of intensity, though, it definitely wasn't like his maze phase. Or the traffic light phase. Or the drawing roads and intersections phase...

Regardless, we've done quite a few space activities over the years because of his off and on interest in outer space and planets. And you'll find these ideas below. Things like sensory activities, printables, and crafts.

As you'll see, we've used this interest in space to work on a variety of skills too. Everything from math, spelling, and language skills to fine and gross motor skills. So let's get exploring!
