Reminder that rules for playing r made up
Have stuffies with no names/personalities
Have stuffies who are just toys and you dont see them as friends or sibbies or alive etc
Have one stuffie whose soul/name goes in between plushies!! I do this a lot because my main comfort plushie is too big to take with me so her soul can move between plushies :] sometimes she is a dog, sometimes she is a monkey, sometimes she is a giraffe...
Have multiple doubles of the same kind of toy
People whose toys have toys (i.e. my doll has plushies!)
Prefer dolls or figurines or other hard plastic toys rather than soft plushies
Keep your toys on display and dont really take them down or physically play with them (they dont mind this!! In fact they enjoy relaxing :] )
Give names/personalities to toys that technically wouldnt have them (like cars)
Form bonds or play with things that aren't toys, like sticks, pet rocks, etc, or even electronics like phones or laptops!
Also, touching on the theme from earlier, people who dont have typical rules for toys, such as: my toy can come with me in spirit even if I cant actually bring them, my toy and I communicate telepathically or in another nonverbal way, my plushie's soul isnt bound to a plush body and can jump into electronics or figurines, etc
Customize your toys with paint, patches, embroidery, dye, etc
Accessorise your toys or make them clothes and that's how you play with them !!
Prefer not to play with others, or for people to not touch your toys! That's very fair!
Have toys who are characters from a specific media, but you customize them to make them look different, give them a different name, give them a different story, etc
🐅 . . . ☆ Yes autistic play looks different, but "different" doesn't just mean the "amount of weird the public can tolerate", and play can be anything!! The idea is that it's fun for YOU ( nd whoever else plays with you! ) What doesn't look fun to you might be a blast for someone else ! Keeping an open mind will make playing fun !
Remember to share and keep gentle hands with others things, and also to be kind about the way that others play!! Our differences make us good friends :] 🦋
☆ ~`` What are some of the ways YOU play differently than others? ``
. . . Hint: the ones in purple apply to me !!
