This is for people that I live with.

I don’t mean any lame team building exercises, but casual group activities. It could be something mundane like organizing a trip to the store together. Movie trips would also be fine as would showing something on the home projector, though I feel like there’d be more distractions and temptation at home.

    It’d depend on the severity of their autism and stuff.

    But going for a walk together or anything without big crowds. If they’re ok with crowds, go shopping together or something. Any normal activity can be ok unless they’re the type to get overstimulated.

      We could go to the grocery store or a movie at a time when it’s not busy.

      We could go for walks somewhere but it would take a collection of mopeds and e-bikes going at e-bike speed because there’s not a good walk place from the house. I think a group walk at night when it’s quiet would be good.

      There’s one roommate with noticeable autism and I wouldn’t call it very severe but he could be trying to hide it.

        Is there any public transportation in the area and do they feel comfortable riding on it? If so and if they’re receptive to it, you could potentially “collect” transit lines, where you ride one line from beginning to end to see the view outside, potentially explore the areas along the route, and “collect” routes and corridors they’re explored, take pictures (of the surroundings if they themselves don’t like being photographed), and basically explore different parts of the city that way. Usually most transit networks are fairly quiet at night as well.

        Obviously the viability of this depends on what level of transit network you have, the more extensive and built-up the better since that can reach more places faster.
