Special Needs Symbols

Ok, I know Autism's symbol is a puzzle piece... do other special needs have symbols too? I tried googling, but all im getting is the awareness ribbons...

the reason I ask is because my son has to decorate a christmas tree on paper with help.. and well he has autism and does all his stuff hand over hand, and i figured we could do his like an awareness tree and have autism stuff on it (since he has autism) and incorporate his classmates special needs (down syndrome, rett syndrome, autism, etc.) Any input?

I think thats a great idea
I tried googling down syndrome and im finding footprints and butterfly
Im leaning towards the footprints though
Not to sure

yeah i seen footprints and butterflies too... but i've also seen butterflies for EB. Im open for all special needs, and i have ribbon since i do hairbows and whatnot so thats not an issue.. just trying to make it stand out so ppl look at it and kinda think "wow this tree is unique" just like the kids in my sons class are... unique, yet beautiful and something to stop and take a 2nd look at and appreciate.

Very true
I work with special needs, and they make you appreciate life much more  
I can ask around tomarrow at work for the symbols and ill let you know what i get

Thanks hun  

I don't know about other SN's, but my daughter has Turner Syndrome, and it's symbol is a purple butterfly.

I asked around at work and no one seemed to know about the others, besides autism since we do have a few consumers with it.

this was his tree..
