Summary

The goal of this study is to learn if movement-based digital games can help improve motor skills in children aged 6-10 years with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The main question this study aims to answer is: \* Do children who take part in movement-based digital games show greater improvement in motor skills than children who continue their usual education and rehabilitation program? Researchers will compare 10 children who take part in the movement-based digital game program with 10 children who continue their usual education and rehabilitation program. Participants in the movement-based digital game group will: * Play movement-based digital games twice a week for 10 weeks. * Take part in game sessions lasting about 60 minutes. * Complete motor skill assessments before, during, and after the program. Participants in the control group will continue their usual education and rehabilitation program and complete the same motor skill assessments at the same time points.
