and I am sooooooooo nervous although probably not as much as mum is. She is starting on an Autism course as S suffers from it and it'll give her a bit more of an understanding. He is 3.5 yrs. Speaks absolutely no english at all as he is Polish (even though I thought they were Russian!) Need to get some key words of Mum before she dashes off today.
Wish me luck, I know he has a bit of a temper as he was kicking and punching mum last week. Just hope I'm not in for a bit of the same. Need to keep DD well away or I will be very upset if she gets hurt.
Roll on 1pm! :thumbsup:

Yes but not together, have changed R to a Thursday for 8-weeks until S finishes. Decided two together might have been a bit too much. Want to give S chance to settle first.
He's here now and it quite happy so hope it continues!

Does he use picture clues, maybe better than verbal communication. Try the Do-to-learn website.

That's okay, the picture cards are great, really good for visual timetables etc.

Fooooooooowweeeeeeee! I'm finished :thumbsup:
S was very well behaved (initally), until that is, my daughter woke from her nap and wanted to play with HER toys and well, he flipped! He snatched absolutely everything off her, made her cry and when I took them back, he screamed :eek: - not a crying scream, like a girls scream which is so loud and high pitched that he made my daughter cry so much, she was sobbing for a good 15 minutes afterwards :( My poor baby!
Just glad it's only until 12.45, I couldn't have him all day like that, no way :rolleyes:
