The magical use of "treasure chest"

I have a child, 14 years old. He is mentally retarded. He can't take care of himself when urinating. He has no sense of hygiene. He doesn't know how to drink clean water when he is thirsty. He saw a basin of water in the washtub in the yard and drank it on the ground. He basically doesn't know language, hasn't said a word, and can't understand instructions. Only his 54-year-old father lives with him. He is a registered cardholder. His father feeds several sheep every day and puts them on the pasture.

As early as a few years ago, because the child was running around and often lost, his father locked him in the house first, and the child turned over from the house to the beam, exposing a big hole in the tile on the roof. If this method doesn't work, he will be tied at home with a rope. While he was herding sheep, everyone in the village advised him to take him with him. He also listens to the villagers and takes him everywhere.

When you first start teaching him, first understand what he likes. Basically, he is not interested in the building blocks, stickers and picture books brought to him. His only interest is food. I also found that he prefers to rummage through his bag and look for things in it. So I thought of using the "treasure chest" to attract his attention and increase his attention.

At first, I put markers and biscuits in my bag and let him take them himself. I found that he can find out exactly what can and can't be eaten. He took out the biscuit and handed it to his father to tear it open. When he eats cookies, he also gives them to his father. Maybe this is a kind of sharing and love for my father. Later, every time I went, I brought him a bag of things, which contained some edible and inedible things. Observe his interest points. He takes them out of the treasure chest first, which is definitely his most interest.

Once I put yogurt in a "treasure chest". He took it out and handed it to his father. Obviously, he wants his father to open it for him. My father was about to open it for him. I quickly stopped my father and said to let him do it himself. My father handed him the milk, but he could not open it in a hurry. I handed him a straw and motioned for him to insert it hard. He didn't finish. I asked his father if his child could use a straw, and his father said, "I haven't tried." I put the straw in the yogurt to see how he drank it, but he took it and squeezed it from top to bottom like a drink. Three times five divided by two, he drank it all. Because yogurt is a small bottle, he still wants to find it to drink. This time, we began to teach him to suck directly instead of drinking sour milk bottles backwards. In a short time, four bottles of yogurt were finished.

Another time, I put a box of building blocks, biscuits, oranges and apples in the "treasure chest". I thought colorful building blocks would attract children's attention, so I took them out and wanted to build them with him. As a result, he didn't even look at it, so he just picked up the "treasure chest". I want to encourage him to cooperate with us to build building blocks through material rewards. Even if he cooperates, it will pay off. As a result, he ran out and turned around and came back. I have to give him food to eat. Tell him when you eat: this is a biscuit. This is an apple. This is milk.

The treasure chest has a mysterious feeling. Every time a child discovers a new continent from a treasure chest, he will explore and discover it, attracting children's attention and stimulating their interest and curiosity. This treasure chest is also widely used in classroom teaching, but children will never get tired of it and will never lose interest in it. On the contrary, children will make different discoveries every time, and they also need a sense of accomplishment and gain.
