A Little About Autistic Toddler Toys

When I think of autistic toddler toys, the first thing that comes to mind is the obvious: isn't it better, or at least more politically correct, to call them "toys for toddlers with autism?" I mean come on! Well, who would have thought there were toys that were specially made for special toddlers? Especially since toddlers that have autism usually don't have too many differences in the way they play with toys as compared to other children. That is, if they are interested in playing with toys at all.

It's been my experience that some children with autism are more interested in playing with objects that are not necessarily meant to be used as toys. For example: their parent's keys, or the locks on a door. But to me, autistic toddler toys. would be toys that do a better job at grabbing the attention of a toddler, or toys that help boost whatever developmental skill the child may need extra help with.
