Hi Ellen,
I've read your bl...Love the Cadbury!<br /><br />Hi Ellen,<br />I've read your blog for a few months, but just officially became a follower. Glad to meet you! :)<br />I read on Team Inspire this morning about your "Play and Activities for Special Needs" discussion. Well, are you in good company or what!?<br />I taught Early Childhood Special Needs for 12 years before having Roa who was officially diagnosed with quadra spastic cerebral palsy at 1 year. I have my Master's in Education with my thesis on "Learning through Play".<br />I am the QUEEN of homemade games and toys. Poor Roa, I must say..or lucky, which ever way you look at it.<br />My personal favorites, you ask? Roa has difficulty with hand opening and grasping. He finds success with fine motor tasks given ribbons, strings, Marti Gras beads, etc (We call them Roa's fancies) Well, I make a variety of container play activities with his fancies. Coffee cans, lunch meat containers, baby food jars- name a container and I'll make a toy! Velcro is a great way to attach fancies to a surface that he can pull off. <br />Also one of his favorites is "Roa's Carrot Patch"- simply an egg carton with holes in the bottom and inserted fabric carrots.<br />You can see the video on Roa's blog- www.rojosjourney.com<br />Thanks for the great discussion and inspiring motivation to play in parents of special kiddos. <br />See you around the Blogger!<br />JenniferJennifer Thayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06932147476896663497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-81189475566706923032010-02-24T22:31:16.486-05:002010-02-24T22:31:16.486-05:00Cadbury Creme Eggs are the best part of the upcomi...Cadbury Creme Eggs are the best part of the upcoming Spring! :)Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479345204252020874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-45808643757676725382010-02-24T00:22:47.246-05:002010-02-24T00:22:47.246-05:00thanks for the DVD.

I try to avoid them because otherwise I would eat at least 1 a day and they cannot be good for me. Usually the Easter Bunny will bring 1 or 2 as a special treat!Kierahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09187614427642053939noreply@blogger.com
