Yesterday, Duncan used his ipad fairly independently.
He went to the PLQ activities folder and chose "Listen to Music" and he laid in the cool bedroom, on that 106 degree afternoon, and listened to "Baby Songs" which he loves, from his childhood.
He also likes Fantasia.
For awhile, it seemed that his interest in the ipad was gone; that it was too connected to his idea of school.
Ardene and I spoke of it on our walk.
It has been since that morning that I have been more consistent in having Duncan use the ipad to make all kinds of requests.
The activities folder is growing. That is a very good thing.
One of the best moments was when he went to activities with Brett and it didn't seem all together deliberate, or not all of it, but he picked "your turn" and "my turn"
"You want to play?" asked Brett
And I am not sure if he deliberately hit tickle, but the ipad said "Your turn, my turn, tickle"
They were on the bed when this happened and Brett started to tickle Duncan and it was sooooo cute and funny!
After that he selected "hose" and they went to the back yard where Brett has used a splitter to run both the outdoor sink and hose.
This morning, Tuesday August 20, 2013, he used the ipad to request "Yoo-Hoo"
