Hi to all!
I've been lurking on this site for a while now, and have found some of the general advice regarding SN incredibly helpful. I just wondered I could pick your collective brains regarding what is really (I suppose) a fairly trivial ongoing problem with my DS who is 5 and been diagnosed with Dyspraxia? How can I improve his awareness of the mess he makes of himself when eating? it seems that whatever he is eating manages to find its way all over his face, sleeves, hands, arms and anything else in the general vicinity?! he is then completely unaware that he looks like he has been involved in an extremely enthusiastic food fight and will happily go back to class or roll around on the furniture (thus transfering said foodstuffs all over the house) I feel that I am constantly nagging him at the moment and worry that when he is at school the other kids will just laugh at him
