"Finished" throwover is a visual aid that helps to show when an activity or device is not available for use. The throw is approximately 110cm x 110cm in size - perfect to cover static electronic devices. Many children with autism have difficulty understanding when told verbally that it is time to finish an activity and also recognising how to finish an activity in an appropriate manner. Quite often, it is at this point that the child becomes upset, which can lead into a meltdown as they can not understand the situation and transition to the next activity. By placing the "finished" throw over the item, this will symbolise that they have finished with the activity. This is a concrete way for the child to then move on to another task.
