I'm sorry to hear it's not a fun time for you @and15, I know several people who dread xmas for various reasons. But I'll always try and include them in anything fun, just in case. I understand lots of flashy lights and loud noises can be very scary for children with ASD, far too much stimulation.Albus (he/him)

It can be a very overwhelming and overstimulating time of year @and15. Definitely not everyone's favourite time! Hope you and your 7 year old are coping okay and the next few weeks go by nice and fast for you both
