Do you know as per the research study more than 2 million people might be affected by AUTISM in India?

It is estimated that worldwide about one in 160 children has an ASD.

AUTISM is a severe lifelong neurological disorder/disability with unknown cause.

The disorder affects both social and communication skills.

As per research 63% aggressive behavior, 40% nonverbal, 87% Hand-Eye coordination, and 90% Sensory Issues.

Play is an important part of a child’s development, and it happens naturally. It builds fine and gross motor skills, social skills, communication skills, language, thinking, and problem-solving skills. But it is not the case with individuals with AUTISM.

A child may want to play alone, engage in repetitive play like lining up toys or moving from them from point A to point B and then back again, or play with the same thing over and over. Children can learn play skills with guidance and by structuring play. Simple matching tasks, because they can be abstract, are often more difficult for children with AUTISM.

Children diagnosed with Autism have trouble initiating and sustaining their play and may display delayed patterns of social interaction. Difficulties in motor planning, expressive language, and receptive communication, imitation, fine and gross motor movements are some obstacles they encounter during play.
