Description

Looking for the best toys for children with autism—and how to actually use them to boost communication, play, and social skills? In this rebroadcast, Kelsey General and Dr. Mary Barbera dive into simple strategies and toy recommendations for children with autism or early signs of autism. But spoiler alert: it’s not just about the toys themselves.

It’s about the procedures—how you play, how you teach, and how you engage. Whether you’re a parent or a professional, you’ll learn what to consider before choosing a toy and how to make cause-and-effect toys more meaningful for your child. We’ll share practical ideas for building language using everyday toys and simple ways to organize your play space for success. You’ll also learn what to do if your child doesn’t seem interested in toys at all.
