Strengthen your child with this lovingly designed learning and affirmation material about masking in autism.
“Carlo Chameleon Explains Masking” helps children to understand themselves better – without pressure, with lots of compassion and in their own language.


❓What is masking – and why is this topic so important?

👉🏻What masking is

👉🏻Why it can be so tiring

👉🏻Why "taking off the mask" requires courage and confidence

👉🏻How self-acceptance and feelings can be strengthened

Carlo Chameleon – a friendly, colorful mascot – accompanies the children through all the pages.
Carlo knows about masking from his own experience and encourages people to show themselves – step by step.
