Description

I made this slide to show how monotropism and strong interests can shape the way an Autistic child plays. It says an Autistic child may play differently, find comfort in repetitive play, and prefer to play alone or alongside others. It suggests that room to follow their own monotropic learning style helps minds and bodies to regulate and supports deeper thinking and new skills. A photo of a small child by a stream, absorbed with a stick, goes with it. It could be useful for parents, early years settings and teachers.
