sees children with autism symptoms in the outpatient clinic, they will be given some toys to provide part of the basis for later diagnosis of the disease.
On the one hand, because children with autism have communication barriers, they cannot communicate normally with others, and they cannot respond by calling their names. A car can attract the child's attention and observe the child's reaction (actions, expressions, etc.) .
On the other hand, children with autism generally have stereotyped repetitive hobbies.
Playing with cars for children is convenient for observing whether the children have unusual interest in car tires, opening and closing doors, etc. and the way of playing, so as to further judge whether the children have autism tendency.
If the child is autistic, then the child will generally like these special and regular items, and will be immersed in it when playing. Parents should also learn more about the child’s hobbies in this regard, and correct the child’s unsatisfactory in time. Habit. At the same time, it is necessary to do rehabilitation training for the child as soon as possible, and cooperate with the doctor to do family training to help the child improve the ability of self-care as soon as possible.
Autism is a developmental disorder, and its symptoms usually appear before young children are three years old. According to the diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder in DSM-V, these symptoms mainly revolve around two broad categories, namely:
(1) social communication and interaction;
(2) paranoid or repetitive behaviors and interests.
In terms of social communication and interaction, children with autism will show obstacles in social interaction and interaction with others. They are not good at understanding and expressing emotions, have difficulty in establishing and maintaining friendships, and they are not good at interpreting and using non-verbal messages. Barriers to language communication;
In terms of paranoid or repetitive behaviors and interests, they prefer regular and specific ways of doing things, have narrow interests, and sometimes have repetitive behaviors and abnormal sensory responses.
Obviously, the above two explanations are why we have to play with cars for children with autism. Cars are used to attract children's attention and stimulate children's sensory response. Of course, it can also be other things such as flashing and sound toys. , Through the volume, strong light or flashing light and other visual prompts, to calm down children's emotions, enhance communication and interaction and other effects.
Some children with autism have significant emotional and behavioral problems.For example, if there is a behavior that hurts others or self-injures, then the car can be used to divert the child's attention. The car will become a communication and interaction medium, and it can even become a positive point of interest for the child. Maybe in the future, the child will be able to design a concept car.
Children with autism need additional training to master some skills and abilities. These abilities include mental interpretation, understanding other people’s feelings and thoughts, emotional control, interpreting abstract concepts, understanding the essence of daily life information and executive functions, etc. .
As long as the necessary training is given, the general autistic children can be effectively improved with observational learning or training. In addition to the remedial function, these trainings also have preventive and developmental effects, helping them to build a basic society in the long run Adaptation skills.
