make sure they dont run away and remind them who you are so they dont get scared. coloring and play doh is pretty good because not only is it fun, it enhances their skills in color and shape development. ]
Well Make sure He/She Eats. Play with them for a little bit. & make sure He/She Has Got in a shower/Bath. & then watch a movie thay should be out by then :]
hope i help <333 ]
It honestly depends on the child. Kids with autism are really different from normal children. They have certain items that you cannot touch or they get mad, and they don't really like to be touched a lot, so make sure you don't touch them often. They each like to do different things though. Ask them what they like to do, & then go with that. =) ]
It depends on the kid. I have a cousin with autism and she really likes to go on the computer and play games online (which you could play with the kid you babysit with and help them when they can't do something) or she really likes to watch movies. Also, coloring is always something almost every kid loves to do. I know this probably doesn't help that much, but all kids with autism are generally different so they don't have the same needs as others. Maybe you could call their parents and ask them of some activites the kid would want to do, you may feel stupid asking them, but I bet the parents would be more than happy to tell you. Good luck. Hoped this helped a little bit. ]
