My little 5 year old friend with Autism played with kinetic sand today.
Aarav (name changed) is tactile defensive. He doesn’t like messy stuff. He said that his hands became dirty when he played with spicy cream (masala cream) today.
When we went into the FFC (function, features, and class) we figured that the word spicy came from the powdery structure and the softness Of the kinetic sand made it like cream. Since it was called spicy 
we ended up tasting kinetic sand today. It was yuck!! Since it was cream, we also rubbed it on doremon and fish to make their skin soft.
The best part is he started naming things so creatively. This is much better then “this” or that” (non-specific indicators)
