Hair, hair, let's cut that hair

About this book

Hair, hair, let's cut that hair is a fun rhyming poem for children about having a hair cut; including some silly things that might happen if their hair gets too long.For many children having their hair cut can be quite a daunting task; especially for children on the autistic spectrum.This book aims to talk about hair in a fun way with the hope of reducing anxiety caused when the subject of hair cutting arises.Our friendly little monster character will find itself in several silly situations from birds making a nest on its head through to long hair blocking out the light, making it appear to be night time.A note for parents of children on the autistic spectrum: For my youngest, the mention of a hair cut causes immediate high levels of anxiety and the actual hair cut event is often quite traumatic.I wrote this book for my young one to help desensitise the subject of hair and hair cuts.While all of our children are different, I believe discussing a subject such as hair cutting (albeit in a fun and silly way) is a great way to start reducing the anxiety and stress that for some our kids affects many everyday activities.I hope this book helps and provides you and your children a bit of fun around a subject that can often be quite stressful.
