• Children where there is a concern or diagnosis of ASD

Why is Early Intervention So Important?

Children on the autism spectrum often have difficulty relating to others in a meaningful way. Their ability to successfully develop friendships is generally limited due to their incapacity to properly understand other people's emotional expression. Early intervention makes a big difference to a child's development, including higher intelligence and increased social and daily living skills. While which interventions to take can vary, as each child with ASD is an individual with different needs, Teach Me to Play Social Games is a great stepping stone into understanding your child.
