The Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up: Yeah, baby!


It's the Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up. Dig it? Groovy.

The idea

Link to a favorite post of the week—yours or someone else's.

What to do

Scroll all the way down to the bottom of this post. Where it says "Your name" put the name of the blog followed by the title of the post (or just the name of the post, if there's no room—you get 80 characters).

Like this: Love That Max: Mommy Stole All My Peanut Butter Cups

Where it says "Your URL" put the direct link to the post.

Click "Enter." Leave a comment if you want to say more. Go check out some great posts.

Happy linking!

  4. Okay, my post has nothing to do with special needs, it's about cats. But cats have been so important in my son's development. They've elicited language, affect and empathy from him :-)

  7. My name is Mike Nobel. I'm a songwriter living in Maine. My post is a link to the newly posted Youtube video for my original song, "Every Child, A Treasure", first written as the theme song for an educational film featuring interviews with parents of children with special needs. I chose images of multicolored leaves, and beautiful flowers, as a metaphor for the beauty and treasured value of every child in our lives. http://youtu.be/RVbJiEejazg

  8. Imaginable Intelligence: is a TED talk about how everyone, regardless of ability or perceived competence, deserves to be heard. Its about prioritising communication in first line intervention and making alternative communication systems available as a matter of urgency.

  9. Thanks, Ellen.
    Dexter is on a waiting list for an operation to have his hip adductor released. All that progress with muscle tone and walking will be lost. Heartbreaking, but... needed. We'll bounce back. #47 Have a great weekend.

  14. Hi Ellen and thanks for this. I love finding new special needs blogs. I have been a reader but not a commenter for awhile now, but decided this was the perfect time for me to join in. I also wanted to know if you might be interested in reviewing my new book, The Don't Freak Out Guide to parenting Kids with Asperger's. Here is the link if you want to check it out first before you commit.: http://www.amazon.com/Dont-Freak-Guide-Parenting-Aspergers/dp/0983990042/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top I know your kiddo does not have Aspergers but you have many followers who have kids on the spectrum that might find the info useful. You can email me at sharon@sharonfuentes.com if you want more info. Thanks so much.
    Warmest regards,
    Sharon
