This weeks favourites have been - Toy Story 1 & 2, Polar Express, Cirque du Solais - La Nouba. After seeing (listening) to each one several times a day it does get a bit tedious. The only time we get to watch something of our choice is when he has gone to bed.
i think i have watched Polar Express around 20-30 times (over the christmas period). I know nothing about children who are autistic, but have you tried introducing UP?
to behonest, that isn't a bad selection - Polar express (although a little creepy) is pretty layered with loads of hidden messages.
Toy Story 1 & 2 (& 3)- nuff said. can't think of a better trilogy (of that genre).
dont know about the Cirque du Solais...
anyway, i could be spouting useless crap here, so apologies in advance!
we have one boy and we have another on the way - Gender TBC upon arrival
i can see the plus side to having boys only, but a girl would mean at least the mrs would have some way of indulging in her hobbies with her offspring Theo (2 years old) has had his nails painted once. ONCE. however, he helped me fit some tyres to my rims yesterday and loves his new balance bike
