How to deal with ASD as a counselor

...See more Hi everyone! I am a counselor at several camps and had a kid with ASD come in a few weeks before. She was wonderful, but it was hard to pay attention to a group of 30 kids and make sure she's okay. One time we played an Alice in Wonderland game, where we pretended to be in Wonderland. After the game, the girl had trouble understanding that we weren't actually in Wonderland and we had to talk with her all week long, telling her that the games we played weren't real. That was not so great for the other children because they couldn't play in their fantasy world anymore without the counselors having to say that it was all just a game. Does anyone know how we could have dealt with this better? I hope you understand the problem, it's difficult for me to explain 😅
