What the Expert Says:

Hello and thank you for writing to JustAsk.

Here are great cooperative activities which may be helpful:

BALL playing. Children of all skill levels love playing with a ball. Also the book, The FRIENDSHIP PUZZLE gives examples of ball playing with autistic and non-autistic children.

Water play in a pool with supervision.

Puppet making or other tasks if the child does not have sensory issues.

Karaoke if the child is verbal or enjoys music

Dancing

Good luck!
