Summary

Researchers at Saveetha University studied a structured play-based program called the B.A.S.I.C.S. framework for children with autism spectrum disorder. The program combines balance, social, thinking, and self-reliance activities into 45-minute sessions three times a week for six weeks. The study looked back at records of 120 children aged 6 to 12 to see whether the program was linked to changes in balance and daily independence. This early research asks whether play-based therapy can support functional skills in children with autism.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a structured play-based therapy program called the B.A.S.I.C.S. framework
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a low-risk, play-based way to help children with autism build balance and everyday independence.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early study that looks back at past records, so it cannot prove the play program caused any changes. Results may not apply to all children with autism.
