When a child can read at two but struggles to converse, people ask why. Hyperlexia is one answer. It’s a reminder that intelligence, language, and communication don’t all arrive the same way or on the same timeline. 🤍 #autism #autistic #hyperlexia #hyperlexic #autismawareness #autismacceptance #neurodivergent #neurodiversity | Autism Out Loud

Which of these early signs did you notice first? 🤔 And how old was your child when you started to notice these signs? For my son, he started to identify letters and numbers around 18 months and was full-on reading by his second birthday. His interest in letters and numbers during the toddler and preschool years were SO intense! And reading, spelling, and playing with alphabet toys, numbers, and calculators were how he spent most of his days. He'd write letters, numbers, and words everywhere! In

Feeling like no one gets what it's like to raise a hyperlexic child? Well, I do! And so does this amazing community we've built here. 😊 We've all googled things like: ➡️ "Why can my toddler read, but not talk?" ➡️ "Why is my toddler obsessed with letters and numbers?" Or some variation of those. Thankfully, when you search phrases like these you actually come across the term hyperlexia now, but, trust me, that wasn't the case when my son started reading before his second birthday some 14 years

Dyan 🇨🇦 Hyperlexia Tips & Resources on Instagram: "I don't know about you...👇🏻 But I have no concept of what's typical when it comes to reading. 😅 I mean both of my boys taught themselves to read by age two. 🤷🏻‍♀️ So I thought it might be helpful to showcase typical reading milestones and compare them to hyperlexia. I'd also love to know more about your experiences. At what age did your hyperlexic child start to recognize and identify letters, and when did you notice that they could actua

Dyan 🇨🇦 Hyperlexia Tips & Resources on Instagram: "You've probably heard me mention grade 4 before...👇🏻 It's a grade that pops up again and again in hyperlexia research, even in Silberberg & Silberberg's original papers on hyperlexia from the 1960s! That's because the purpose and goal of reading changes at this time (as you'll see in the chart I'm pointing to). So that's when the comprehension challenges of hyperlexia really become noticeable.

Dyan 🇨🇦 Hyperlexia Tips & Resources on Instagram: "Why this works for hyperlexic kids ⬇️ - It plays to their strengths in decoding. - It taps into their natural interest for the written word. - It makes things visual, which makes abstract things more concrete. - It gives them a script or language model that they can use to communicate. - It can be referenced again and again, unlike speech which disappears. - It doesn't have any of the extra social demands of speech such as tone or facial expre
