Guest guest Posted March 2, 2002 Report Share Posted March 2, 2002 MIKEY SAID BABY! He came up to me. There was a book next to me with a picture of a baby on the cover. He POINTED TO THE PICTURE AND SAID BABY. OK he said baybaybaybaybay. But he meant baby! He opened the book and looked through it and found another picture of a baby. HE POINTED TO IT AND SAID BABY. He ran over to his brother, hugged Gabe, POINTED TO HIM AND SAID...BABY!!!!! We went through the entire book and every picture of a baby, he pointed TO THE BABY'S FACE and said....BABY!!!!!!!!! He did not learn this from a video repeating it 5 million times. I have not been trying to teach it to him. He picked it up BY HIMSELF. He SEES the pictures. He UNDERSTANDS the pictures. May I? Please? .........HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!! OK, time to get the PECS cards back out. <dance> <dance> <dance> -Sara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderful, wonderful news, Sara! I am so happy for you. > > He did not learn this from a video repeating it 5 million times. I have not > been trying to teach it to him. He picked it up BY HIMSELF. He SEES the > pictures. He UNDERSTANDS the pictures. Learning incidentally is one of those big hurdles for kids with autism. They can do it, but it doesn't come as naturally to them. So hooray for getting over that particular hurdle. > > May I? Please? > > ........HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!! Well, he certainly deserves it! > > OK, time to get the PECS cards back out. > > <dance> <dance> <dance> Dancing with you, Sara, dancing with you...

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2002 Report Share Posted March 3, 2002 This is so great, Sara. Do try the PECS.. has become so much more verbal since they've been using them at school..he says words and short sentences at school all day long...of course, at home, he won't do if for us most of the time.
