I am a firm believer in writing social stories for kids with autism or hyperlexia. They are such a great way to break down tasks into simple steps and teach valuable social skills or practical life skills.
Besides, the first time I ever used a social story with J was absolutely life changing! Usually one read through of a social story is enough for him to retain all the concepts, and even the exact phrases to say if included!
This free printable social story about brushing teeth is the perfect way to teach kids why to brush, how often to brush, how to floss, and more! It breaks down this everyday skill into simple steps.
About the Free Printable Social Story
This social story explains how to brush your teeth, why your child should, and how often they should. It also explains flossing. However, I did not include mouthwash in this 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!
