Hello Ma'am ! My daughter is 7 and a half years old. She was diagnosed with ASD at the age of 4 years. She was going to a special school until Feb 2020, That's when the schools got closed till further orders. I have seen many changes in her since then. She gets restless very easily, throws tantrums, doesn't want to eat anything unless made to. I am finding it difficult to manage her at home. kindly suggest some home based activities to keep her occupied and channelise her energy in the right direction. Thanks!

Hello Madam! My son is 6 year old. He is 'on the spectrum' and can't express himself in words. He mostly uses gestures to share his needs and his social skills are also not up to the mark . He doens't make an eye contact, and would not answer any question even on being repeatedly asked. Please guide on how to teach him social skills and to express himself.

My son is 9 years old. He is becoming restless day by day. He likes to a follow a particular routine but as I am working parent,it becomes difficult for me to manage him alone. I have a younger daughter too who is 3 years old. Please suggest ways to keep him occupied alone and involve himself in some solitary play or activities. He is a child with moderate autism.
