Woodbine House is a publisher specializing in books about children with special needs. My Hawaii friend Debbie of http://tianagrace.blogspot.com/, reminded me that in honor of Down Syndrome Awareness Month, Woodbine House is taking 20% off the Down syndrome titles during the month of October. Here is the link to their website: http://www.woodbinehouse.com/Down-Syndrome.29.0.0.2.htm . I am really excited about the "Kids Like Me..Learn ABCs" board book...hmmm perhaps Sylas will be getting some books for Christmas!
Speaking of gift giving, Toys R Us just released it's annual Toy Guide for Differently Abled Kids. The guide matches specific skill sets with a wide range of everyday toys. The toys are divided up into different sections for example: Fine motor, gross motor, tactile, social skills, language, etc. You may want to check it out: http://www.toysrus.com/shop/index.jsp?categoryId=3261680
Thank you! Awesome suggestions. I'm almost on the mend but have lost my voice now so as soon as I can talk we need to try and connect again!

ReplyDeleteI'm still sick and without a voice for the past 4 days. This is a crazy flu I got. Anyway, I wanted to say I found another Sylas on the parenting.com website...
