Børn har brug for leg, og de har brug for den variation, udfordring, forandring og indsigt, som legen fører med sig. Børn med autismespektrum- eller sanseintegrationsforstyrrelser står med en særlig udfordring, da de mangler en del af de sociale, kommunikative og forestillingsmæssige kompetencer, som børn både benytter og udvikler gennem leg. Disse børn har behov for en ekstra håndsrækning for at blive inkluderet og motiveret til at indgå i et fællesskab med andre børn – i institutionen, skolen eller i hjemmet. I denne bog giver forfatteren Barbara Sher en række bud på, hvilke lege man med fordel kan afprøve, når et eller flere børn i en gruppe har udfordringer i forhold til sanseintegration eller autisme. Bogen indledes med en introduktion til teorien bag sanseintegrationsproblemer, hvor forfatteren inddrager sine professionelle erfaringer og personligeoplevelser med sensorisk følsomme børn. Derefter følger legene opdelt i tre kategorier: sociale grovmotoriske lege, sociale finmotoriske lege samt vandlege. Der gives en grundig og overskuelig instruktion til hver enkelt leg, bl.a. med enbeskrivelse af de færdigheder, som udvikles gennem aktiviteten, og hvad man kan gøre for at modificere legen, så også de sartere børn kan deltage. Bogen henvender sig i et letforståeligt sprog til forældre, ergo- og fysioterapeuter og lærere med konkrete forslag til, hvordan man kan tilrettelægge leg og anden social aktivitet, der fremmer udviklingen af socialt samspil.
