I'm the mom to Edwin, who is now 7
years old. I emailed you 5 years ago
about Edwin as a 2 year old skater. Edwin still enjoys roller and ice
skating, but is definitely not interested in freestyle any more. He
likes
ice hockey, and skating fast. I'm glad he has this interest.
But my question is about Edwin's
brother Alexander. Alexander is almost 8
years old, he has moderate to high functioning autism. Alexander is very
bright, but has no social interaction skills. Alexander participates in
Special Olympics roller and ice skating.
Recently Alexander has shown an
interest in football. He enjoys catching a
football, then running with it. He's also interested in throwing the
ball.
Is there any program you know of where he could learn more about the
game,
kind of like Challenger baseball? Alexander definitely would not be able
to
function in a program with regular kids.
Thanks for your time - sorry this is
so long.
