Hello Cliff, you`ve been missed. I hope everything is OK.
If peeling anything takes too long , Dee can peel whilst you do everything else.
I usually ask Dhiren to get things out, but tell him where they are as I ask, eg.
`Can you put the mats on the table. They are on the microwave`.
or
`Will you put the cutlery out. 2 knives, 2 forks and 2 spoons, they are in this drawer. `
or
`Will you cut up the cauliflower. The pan is in the cupboard and the knife is in the drawer. There`s some newspaper in the recycling bag for the scraps`
or
`Will you put 2 plates to warm. They are in THAT cupboard and they go in the grill compartment.`
I let him complete one action before I tell him about the next.
And because his spatial awareness is so poor, he gets in the way, so I make sure we work in different areas of the kitchen.
Hope this is of help.
Love xx
