DIR/Floortime aims to help children with ASD connect while using their interests and passions to develop engagement skills, symbolic thinking, increase logical thinking, and improve interaction.
While autism is most often diagnosed when a young child hasn’t met popular milestones during the formative years and/or when a child’s development has suddenly regressed, some experts believe there are signs of autism that point toward a diagnosis earlier in a child’s life.
While not every person who is autistic can be diagnosed as an infant, there are many benefits to receiving a diagnosis before reaching preschool age.
If your child is exhibiting signs of autism, even minor ones, be sure to document them and share your concerns with your child’s physician. The earlier a child with autism is diagnosed, the sooner families and specialists can work with the child using popular interventions and selected therapies.
