Social Narratives

PERSONALIZED STORIES FOR AUTISTIC CHILDREN

Help your child understand what to expect, prepare for unfamiliar situations, and navigate everyday experiences with personalized stories created around their individual needs.

Social Narratives is designed primarily to support autistic children, while also being suitable for children with ADHD, sensory and communication differences, anxiety, a preference for routine, difficulty with changes, and other support needs.

WHAT ARE SOCIAL NARRATIVES?

Social narratives are short, clear stories that can help children understand everyday situations, routines, social experiences, and what they might expect.

These kinds of supportive narratives are also commonly described as social stories. They can be especially useful when a child is preparing for something new, unfamiliar, or challenging.

A personalized story can gently introduce where they are going, who may be there, what they might see or hear, what could happen next, and what choices they may have.

MADE FOR YOUR CHILD

Every child experiences the world differently. With Social Narratives, you can create a story tailored to your child's age, situation, and individual support needs.

Stories can take into account:

• Autism
• ADHD
• Anxiety
• Sensory sensitivity
• Communication differences
• Preference for routine
• Difficulty with changes
• Emotion regulation challenges

You can also personalize visual characteristics such as hair, eyes, and skin tone, helping illustrations feel more familiar and relevant to your child.

STORIES FOR EVERYDAY MOMENTS

Create personalized stories for situations such as:

• Visiting the dentist or doctor
• Getting a haircut
• Starting school
• Visiting a new place
• Changes in daily routines
• Social situations
• Travel and special events
• Or almost any situation you describe

Whether it is an everyday routine or a completely new experience, Social Narratives lets you create a story around the situation your child is actually going to experience.

CLEAR, SUPPORTIVE AND REASSURING

Social Narratives focuses on understanding rather than compliance.

Stories use calm, child-friendly language and avoid telling children how they must feel or behave. Instead, they provide context, describe possibilities, and help make unfamiliar situations easier to understand.

Stories are created using a dedicated AI system designed specifically for generating supportive, personalized social narratives.

PERSONALIZED ILLUSTRATIONS

Stories can include a personalized illustration based on your child's visual characteristics and the situation in their story, adding a familiar visual element to the experience.

Use each story in the way that works best for your child:

• Read together at your own pace
