Can Play Help with Specific Developmental Disorders?
Yes, play can be adapted to support children with specific developmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and sensory processing issues. For instance, sensory play can be particularly beneficial for children with ASD by helping them manage sensory sensitivities. Structured play activities can also help children with ADHD improve focus and self-regulation.
