The article examines the role of mind maps created using digital tools in improving cognitive processes in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in a bilingual environment. It explores the possibilities of integrating digital technologies into the mind-mapping process. A survey of seminar participants and a literature review confirmed the effectiveness of mind maps in developing memory, provided that adults receive additional guidance and structured teaching methods are applied. The article concludes that this strategy holds promise for developing language skills and supporting the adaptation of children with ASD.
