Activities for a 3 yr old autism boy

[Tam86]

Hi
I have a 3 yr old boy in my room that has autism he doesn’t sit for group activities and likes to do things on his own he really likes climbing over the balancing beams and just walks around, sometimes he will sit and look at books. The biggest thing he does is eats his nappy. His mum has done everything to stop him getting to his nappy and nothing stops him.
What I am trying to ask is, is there a way we can stop him from eating his nappy and putting things in his mouth? And what activities can I get him involved in?
Thanks

Hello,

Here are some activities, I guess will be suitable for the little boy. Here it comes:
1) Pool Noodles.
2) Create sensory bins full of fun items.
3) Create a safe sensory time-out area.
4) Sensory Swings for Autism.
5) Visual schedules.
6) Make an obstacle course.
7) Sensory and calm-down bottles.
8) Playground and outdoor activities.

Above, you have already got an idea about the required activities. But here I will just retouch the procedure to follow to introduce activities to the little boy.

Be consistent.
Stick to a schedule.
Reward good behavior.
Create a home safety zone.
Look for nonverbal cues.
Figure out the motivation behind the tantrum.
Make time for fun.
Pay attention to your child's sensory sensitivities.

I am quite sure that your affection towards the boy with your perfection will do the job.

Thanks
