[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 540073, member: 1550"] Well, if she going to facilitate play because my experience is that kids with poor to no social skills kind of stay to themselves unless prompted (a lot) to interact. In our autism social groups, almost all the autistic kids stayed with family and sibs, but the sibs sometimes played together. A few of the kids who were braver yelled inappropriate comments at one another such as, "You have nice boobies." It would need somebody who knew how to get the kids going and was there to redirect and explain social errors and social norms. Certainly would be interesting, to say the least. But I don't think just throwing a bunch of socially clueless kids together with some typicals would work too well. in my opinion you need structure, activities, and a plan. We did things like swimming and bowling...I think crafts and board games would be better as the swimming just had the kids stay with t heir families and the bowling was not much better. You need in my opinion interactive games. [/QUOTE]
