Suggestions for the best gift for 2 almost 3 years old with autism

Some Hand-Picked Recommendations I picked on Facebook for gifts for two almost 3-year-olds with autism.

• If you go on Amazon and type in sensory gifts, it comes up with loads of things, as I have an autistic kid who x

• We got some fruit and vegetable sets from Melissa and Doug. We also got some puzzles with animals for sensory. Additionally, we purchased a mic from Dollar Tree. He began to vocalize along with Thomas the Tank Engine and STEM Tank Engine.

• We got our grandson this: LED Writing Message Board, Neon Glow Drawing Board

• It depends on his or her preferences and abilities. If your child receives services, such as behavior therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, or speech therapy, these providers usually have good ideas. They can help you find options that combine fun, preferences, abilities, and ways to increase skills.

• Blocks. Wood blocks. Lowercase letters to help build phonics recognition. NOTHING with noise. He may hate it or he may stim with it, either way, no bueno. I would focus on early literacy skills with the child. All children need those. Phonics, phonemic awareness, syllables, and sound blending. If you need sensory toys, PLAYDOUGH works perfectly well for all kids on and off the spectrum.

• Don’t overthink it. All kids need sensory toys, as they help with learning. All kids need early reading skills.

• At that age, my son’s favorite toys were his alphabet and number bots. They were toys that were transfigured into robots. They were great at getting him to learn his alphabet and numbers. We even used them to help him learn & spell sight words. He’s ten now, and they are still in his room, lol

• My son, at the time, was 2. He LOVED to spell and do his shapes A and 1-100. He also enjoyed anything rainbow. He liked the bag full of plastic balls of different colors. He also enjoyed the stacking toys from big to small. Those were his favorite things to do all day, and he is now extremely smart from playing with learning toys

• I’m making my daughter a Toy Story weighted blanket.

• Colors and color books
• Picture book or small trampoline Hide or report this
• rain or a tablet where they have learning videos
• My kids like soft things, fluffy sensory stuff
• Sensory swing

What are your recommendations? We would love to hear any suggestions for toys you bought
