Details:
Kibbles Rockinâ Clubhouse came about when parents Scott and Ann Leslie noticed their son, who is autistic, responded to such programs as Blueâs Clues, but they couldnât find any other products in the childrenâs media market that specifically captured his interests in a fun and motivating way. So they met with experts in speech therapy and music therapy, who were also active in the autism community, to create a company to produce products for children on the autism spectrum.

Together, with project consultants Angela Neve, MT-BC, N.M.T. (who stars as Angela in the program), and Julie Guy, M.M., MT-BC, N.M.T., co-founders of The Music Therapy Center of California in San Diego; and Kara Dodds, M.S., CCC-SLP, a Speech-Language Pathologist, they formed NoteAbilities, Inc. to create and produce Kibbles Rockinâ Clubhouse.

Future titles planned for release by the company are âVolume 2: Self-Care,â âVolume 3: Being a Helper,â âVolume 4: Manners,â âVolume 5: Outings,â âVolume 6: Move Your Bodyâ and âVolume 7: Friends.â


Kibbles Rockinâ Clubhouse is a series of DVDs that helps teach children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) social techniques and self-care through music, games and stories. Children with ASD often experience difficulty with common social skills like communication and interaction, but that's not to say they can't overcome the frustration, conquer the fear, adapt to new situations, and take part in everyday activities that mark the joys of childhood.

In âVolume 1: Expressing Yourselfâ children can learn how to say hello and goodbye, reinforcing the importance of making eye contact and a physical connection (a wave, a handshake, a high-five); follow a set schedule and adapt to the various activities; make masks representing different emotions and learn how to recognize what others are feeling by reading body language and vocal tone; learn how to use words to let people know how they feel or what they want; and learn how to accept that things that donât always go their way so they never chance missing out on anything fun!

Along with instructional repetition and interactive exercises, Kibbles takes viewers into his secret world with games that help the lessons stick. Kibbles Rockinâ Clubhouse is packed with positive reinforcement, encouraging support and fun music and songs. It is designed for children of varying abilities. Featuring Kibbles, a loveable dog puppet, his friends Handy Sam and Angela, and a cast of engaging, adorable children, the series teaches basic life skills through true-to-life examples and situations, interactive exercises and original songs even the youngest viewers can sing along to. Fostering a childâs independence and catering to their strengths, Kibbles Rockinâ Clubhouse is an excellent tool to help them develop into confident individuals.
