J loves the beach, the sand and the sea. The sound of the waves is, in fact, very soothing, to him. Today is also an opportunity for J to play together with his friends. As usual, there wasn't much interaction from him.
Most of the times, J will just follow what others are doing. Yes! At least 1 skill less to work on - Imitation.
At first, J was away from the group. He was playing on his own. After sometime, I asked him if he wanted to join them. N and B were digging hole and putting water into the hole. Putting water into the hole seemed fun, so he decided to join them. He moved his things over and gladly took water from the sea and poured it into the hole.
It is fun on our part, to observe what the kids were doing.
Autism is a social-relational disorder. So we have to create an opportunity for them to interact (preferably in small groups), to play together and to be with people.
