This study aimed to investigate the time spent by the individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) with their siblings and to offer suggestions from the perspective of typically developing siblings so as to find how this might be improved. The study was carried out with the siblings presenting typical development of the individuals with ASD who were attending special education and rehabilitation centers in Istanbul. Ninety-three siblings with typical development participated in the study. The extended version of the questionnaire developed by Yavuz and Coşkun (2014) was used as the data collection tool of the study and the content analysis of the collected data was done. According to the results of the study, it was observed that the siblings play games, do other activities like leisure time activities outside the house with their siblings with ASD.
