Developmental Individual-difference Relationship-based model (DIR) Floortime was developed by the late Dr. Stanley Greenspan to help children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) connect while using their interests and passions to develop engagement skills, symbolic thinking, increase logical thinking, and improve interaction.
During Floortime, children lead the activity with their clinician or caregiver joining in and encouraging skill development within the world and parameters the child has created.
