Have you ever seen your child flap their hands, rock back and forth, or repeat sounds—and wondered why? In this episode of Angel’s Awesome Mind, we take a deep dive into stimming—a common behavior among autistic children.
We explore:
What stimming really is
Why kids on the spectrum engage in repetitive behaviors
How stimming helps with emotions, sensory input, and communication
When it may become a concern
Supportive strategies for parents and caregivers
Instead of trying to stop these behaviors, we talk about how to understand, support, and create safe spaces for healthy stimming. This episode is filled with empathy, insights, and practical tips every parent should hear.
