Artie's actions demonstrate symbolic play, where he is using his toy robot to represent a character that is interested in the exhibit. This is a typical behavior for young children and indicates creativity and imagination in play. This does not indicate deficits in social understanding, social disorientation, or deficits in theory of mind.
