Not necessarily toys but items to broaden her perception of the world. Her favorite one she discovered herself at "the pumpkin patch" at Halloween...the bumpiest gourd you ever saw! Also, we have taught her all the shapes (standard) circle, star, triangle, etc. We recently bought some floating bathtub toys and there were 2 odd shapes...indescribable. When she felt them she described one as "a cloud shape" and the other as "an art shape". That may not seem too impressive to some, but it tickled us pink!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-43003535779106818022012-12-21T07:39:36.859-05:002012-12-21T07:39:36.859-05:00Our two year old grandson is going to be receiving...Our two year old grandson is going to be receiving an adapted tricycle for Christmas. It has special pedals so that his feet can stay on them. It also has a seat belt! Like other tricycles on the market, it also has a handle on the back so that his parents can hang on.

He has Downs and just turned 5. He usually is very uninterested in toys but in the past year or so, I realized that toys that light up captures his attention in small intervals. I researched a few websites for toys for special needs children but it was so overwhelming for me. I am the lady at Christmas that walks up and down the same aisle ( early learners aisle) about 20 times trying to find a gift appropriate for my little boy. I feel defeated at times.Babyboobear99https://www.blogger.com/profile/01640565618630162555noreply@blogger.com
