Those are great ideas. Thanks.

His PT recommended weighted stuff as well because he is a sensory seeker. I will make him a weighted lap belt for Christmas. Also, I love the snake and all of the other ideas. Maybe a lap book as well. If only I could just be done with finals already so I could get started.

Oh, those are too cute. I hope the sale went well. I can't imagine people being able to turn down equine candy canes.

Such big beautiful eyes. I am in love...

Felting looks like such a wonderful medium. I would love to see Ned from One Fish, Two Fish(the guy with the little bed, annoying mother and broken phone).

I also find it wonderful that the loraxes get to live in Christmas trees. He just loves trees so much.

  That is amazing. You could totally be a superspy with that costume.

Person: "Is someone following me? Oh, no, it is just a small semi truck."

Hah, I love it. Now I will be suspicious of all trucks. You never know if one of them might be made of a talented guy and cardboard.

This is soooo cute. What did they think when they saw the picture?

When I was their age, I would have been so happy if my mom had a picture of me and the ninja turtles.  Raphael rocks.

I love this. Levi, you are so cute and your hair is so awesome. I hope you scared lots of people with your mask and got all their candy as they ran away. 

That's a good idea. I will try to make some. I have been working on a small bag to keep trinkets and treats in, but I like the block idea better.

My husband is going to be so surprised when I make dinner some night. Maybe I can get my boy to eat some meat as well. Thanks for this. I love the other hotdog octopus recipe. Maybe I could combine the two to make something magical. Love this.

ETA: I made this tonight. The family was happy. Toddler pick it up and waved it around with us, which is the most we have really gotten him to do with meat. Husband cheered up a bit. Thanks for posting!

My two year old son was recently diagnosed with autism and I want to craft something for him. His birthday is in November so maybe it could be a present. I have read some books but i still don't know what to make. I am a decent knitter, I can follow a crochet pattern and not very good at sewing but have a machine so I can try to work something out. I don't have all of the time in the world either, or a lot of money, but I want to keep my hands busy. He likes things that go round and round, like cars and fans. He is barely verbal but he is very musical.

Any ideas? Extra points given for something that helps him learn social stuff.

Sorry this is kind of a self serving post in the charity section. If there is a better place to put just let me know.
