Autism friendly

When something is "autism friendly," it means it is designed to make people with autism feel comfortable and able to participate without feeling overwhelmed or stressed.

Think of it like a big puzzle. A lot of people's brains are like puzzle pieces that fit together easily, but for some people with autism, their puzzle pieces look a little different. They might need things to be arranged in a certain way so that they can understand and participate in things more easily.

For example, someone with autism might feel uncomfortable in a very loud or brightly lit room. An "autism friendly" room might have softer lighting and less noise so that the person feels more calm and comfortable.

Someone with autism might also have trouble understanding body language or social cues, so an "autism friendly" environment might have clear instructions and signs to help them understand what to do and where to go.

Overall, "autism friendly" just means that something is designed to help people with autism feel more comfortable and included, so that they can enjoy and participate in things just like everyone else!
