Sometimes what seems extremely simple to us, can be extremely complex to kids who are autistic or hyperlexic because they struggle with the hidden rules associated with different social situations.
Even something as simple as the childhood game of hide and seek.
These kids may need reminders to hide alone or stay quiet or to pick new places to hide each round. This free printable hide and seek social story for kids covers all those little hidden rules of this classical childhood game. I hope you find it helpful!
About the Free Printable Social Story
This social story explains how to play a game of hide and seek with friends. It describes the two different roles of hide and seek: the seeker and the hiders, as well as some special tips like hiding in new spots each time. A special shout out to one of my readers, Christen, 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!
