Blind autistic person (self.Blind)

My brother is blind and autistic it’s really hard, by chance what are things we can do to keep him entertained

Autism is a wide spectrum. What sort of level of autism does he have?
Dankmp4 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
I’m not sure what level but I know it’s called echolalia

Ok, I think I understand. I guess you will want stuff that has lots of different textures, and he can use to stimulate his senses. I am high functioning autistic and I know some textures I like, and some I don't like. Maybe fidget toys might also be good, or even something like blu tack or playdough that he can play with.

Alright thank you I just needed something to entertain him since he’s always bored

Could he learn how to use a computer/phone with screen readers?
Dankmp4 [OP] 1 points 1y ago
he can not, his autism is really heavy and with time he’ll improve, so maybe in the future he could learn how to use one
