Sensory Input Time!

The Emperor *refused* to touch this stuff. He's a little strange about touching strange textures, and he has trouble with his writing. Eventually, though, we got him to play a little bit and maybe even have some fun.

  1. Yes. It helps with writing practice and helps the Emperor deal with mushy textures. Despite the picture things like Play-Doh and shaving cream are difficult to get him to use voluntarily! I've heard it's a "sensory input" issue and has to do with sensory integration disfunction and the vestibular system etc. etc.

    But it's also a lot of fun and helps keep him from getting *too* intolerant of other textures...

  2. I've never let the kids play with shaving cream. Looks like a lot of fun! I think we are going to do this!!! :-)

Bringing Garbage Home

Some people up the street were throwing this table away. It was in pretty bad shape and one of the legs was off. I've glued the leg back...
