Fact:
They can be leveraged for educational growth and social skill enhancement.
Restricted interests refer to a focused, intense interest in specific subjects or objects seen in some children with autism.
Understanding these interests allows caregivers to engage children effectively and use their interests to promote learning and development.
Answer:
Encourage exploration of these interests through books, activities, and social play related to those topics.
Through assessments and tailored therapies, we help integrate these interests into learning activities.
Recognizing and addressing restricted interests early in life can promote better long-term outcomes for children with autism.
At Pinnacle Blooms centers across India, USA, Dubai, and Singapore, we incorporate strategies to use these interests during therapy.

Approximately 70% of children with autism exhibit restricted interests, which can be turned into powerful educational tools.

Karan, a charming 5-year-old boy, had an extraordinary fascination with dinosaurs. Initially, his parents, Priya and Sameer, were concerned about his focus on a single topic. However, after a personalized assessment at Pinnacle Blooms, they learned how to use Karan''s love for dinosaurs to enhance his language skills. By incorporating storybooks, games, and educational videos about dinosaurs, Karan not only expanded his vocabulary but also developed social skills through group play centered around his interest.
