Looking at the statistical data, the prevalence of children with ASD in Indonesia has increased tremendously, from 1 per 1000 population to 8 per 1000 population and surpassing the world average of 6 per 1000 population. In 2016, it was estimated that children with ASD in Indonesia exceeded 140 thousand. The increase in the number is directly proportional to the urgency of handling which is increasingly rising to the surface, one of which is efforts to increase the ability of social interaction in children with ASD. This study aims to look for these efforts in the form of joint play devices that are in accordance with the characteristics of children with ASD, in order to accelerate the achievement of learning social capital. The research output is the design of joint play devices that can be applied in institutions of children with special needs and are widely commercialized in the market.
