[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not to be dumb, but what is perservative play? And scaffolding? These are terms i have heard professionals use, and I dont actually know what it means. Google didnt work on this.[/quote] From my limited knowledge... Perservative play refers to obsessions or "special interests." For instance, my AS son loves elevators. He likes to ride them, view videos on Yourtube, pretend to ride in them (closets in our house), etc. They are not necessarily "bad" per se but can be limiting b/c AS kids prefer to do them ALL THE TIME rather than try different types of play. Scaffolding is when a person such as an adult consciously or unconsciously provide supports during social interactions. Peers especially young children won't do this.[/quote]
