Teaching Jeremiah, A Journey into the Mind of an Asperger's Child

Jul. 30, 2008

Computer Fun

For a long time now, Jeremiah has enjoyed watching his brother and sister play video games or the computer.  He lacked the fine motor skills to play himself, but loves to watch.  Here he is with Michaela who is graciously playing Noggin.com for him.  The other day, I let him sit on my lap to play Noggin and we used the kids' computer instead of mine.  It has one of those mouses that is a little heavier and has a big red roller ball to maneuver the arrow with.  Using both hands, Jeremiah was able to roll the ball and click away to play Noggin all by himself!  He had so much fun and was so proud of himself.  He dressed Max & Ruby and played Lazytown.  He couldn't wait to show daddy when he got home.  Baby steps!

He has also recently started to enjoy his siblings Nintendo DS lite's and has even gotten quite good at a few of the games.
