The purpose of this study was to clarify the factors that enable preschoolers with disabilities to participate smoothly in preschool events by focusing on preschool events in kindergarten education. The rational consideration of "explaining the schedule in advance to prevent confusion and embarrassment," which has been generally considered effective for children with autism, was not applied to the preschool events at the target preschool in this study, considering the characteristics of Child A. As a result, the rational consideration of "explaining the schedule in advance to prevent confusion and embarrassment" was not applied to the events at the target preschool in this study. As a result, not explaining the schedule in advance led to the development of the child A's abilities and enabled him to fully demonstrate them at the event. Therefore, it was considered important to guide the child in such a way that he/she can be comfortable with the activity, taking into consideration his/her disability, individuality, and characteristics, rather than uniformly adapting general reasonable accommodations.
