ABA therapy for a 2-year-old is fun, engaging, and designed to teach important life skills through play-based learning. At this early stage, the focus is on building communication, social interaction, and basic behaviors in a positive and supportive way.
Therapists use toys, games, and visual aids to help toddlers learn how to express their needs, make eye contact, follow simple instructions, and engage with their environment. For example, a child might work on saying words or using sign language to request toys, snacks, or attention.
ABA for toddlers also focuses on teaching social skills like playing with others, taking turns, and responding to emotions. These early skills set a strong foundation for future growth and development.
The therapy is gentle, consistent, and individualized to meet the child’s unique needs, making sure each step is manageable and fun.
At Steady Strides ABA, we provide personalized ABA therapy in Texas and New Mexico to help toddlers with autism develop skills that support lifelong success.
