Autistic children display lacking in social skill development during early childhood.
Autistic infants show less attention to social encouragement, look at others less often and respond less to their own name.
Autistic toddlers differ more drastically from social norms. They have minimal eye contact and turn taking and are more likely to communicate by using a other people's hand.
Three to five-year-old autistic children are less likely to approach others spontaneously, imitate and respond to emotions, communicate non-verbally, and take turns with their peers.
Autistic kids do not have much play skills. That's the reason they can be very rigid and only stick to play with one toy. They will find it very hard to blend in and play with normal kids because they simply didn't know how to play with the other toys that the kids might be playing with. Therefore, we must expose more toys to autistic children since young age and teach them to play the proper way. In that way, it could build their confident and whenever they see other kids play with the toy, they will know how to play along with them.
As adults, it is not an easy job to bond with autistic kids. We need a lot of time, effort and perseverance. However, when you manage to bond with them, they can be very close to you!
