It seems to keep them busy for a week. When It is cicada season she and her friends collect them for weeks, they look for all the shells they have grown out of and pile them up. take a ball and play downball against a wall. Play in the playground, sandpit or take a football to kick on the oval. I would also be looking at why she avoids groups and help her overcome it. Social interaction in groups is very important. my daughter plays “shops” and they make a shop collect things for it. It seems to keep them busy for a week.

(I was never the popular one, so I usually only could play with 1 or 2 people!) Hope I helped!

Its played in regular four sqare boxes, but each person gets two sqares We used to have races on the swings to see who could get from perfectly still to really high the fastest And we would do races across the monkey bars where we would start at opposite ends and have to pass each other and whoever got to the other end first won - This worked best on regular, straight, free standing monkey bars (no the kind attached to playground equipment) She could also get a teacher/aide to call Mother May I?/Red Light, Green Light/or a similar game for her and another child Good Luck!
