Summary
This study tests a gamified app called MITA designed to improve language and thinking skills in children with autism aged 2 to 5. Sixty children will be randomly assigned to either use the app alongside their usual therapy or continue with standard care alone. The goal is to see if the app leads to greater improvements in developmental milestones and autism severity scores.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a fun, accessible way to boost language and cognitive skills in young children with autism.
