I posted this as a comment on another post, but I’m explaining it more here, trying to help other littles for when they have a hard time communicating.

This is something a friend and I came up with a year or so ago. It’s super helpful for those days when you can’t communicate well, or if like me you go non-verbal.

It lets your Daddy and/or Mumma know that you aren’t feeling well mentally and may not do as well or if you are okay and need a bit of extra praise.

When I’m having a bad communication day (I have Autism and can get non-verbal or hyper focus) I use a weather system to communicate what type of day I’m having.

Stormy means I can’t talk well, or I’m non-verbal.

Cloudy means I’m on edge, and may not communicate as well or as often.

Sunny means a good day and I’m generally chatty.

It’s a cute and little way to communicate if I cannot communicate at all.

I’m really hoping this helps someone else and they can communicate a little better on those stormy days.
