First Day of School!

We enrolled Dylan in a unique Toddler class this week. He will be participating as a "model peer" for other toddlers with speech and/or other developmental delays. These weekly classes are designed to help prepare toddlers for preschool with a focus on cognitive and language development and improving social skills. This is a wonderful way for Dylan to develop readiness skills for preschool and help others with developmental delays. A perfect win-win situation!

Dylan absolutely loved the class! He was so excited to participate and adjusted great. He is a little difficult to keep on task, but responded well to redirection. The teacher was also very impressed with his bathroom skills and reported that he used the potty twice during the class without prompting. I think he really liked the toddler sized toilet which made it more fun to use.





Dylan's first art project at school. They glued fur and a feather to a lion.
