Using Autism Resources in Therapy and at Home
Every child’s needs are unique. Some may seek sensory input to stay calm, while others benefit from visual tools that clarify expectations and routines. Play-based learning through toys, games, or art helps children explore social concepts, emotional regulation, and problem-solving in a way that feels natural and rewarding.
