I just joined My Space this past week. I never really thought I would go to that site, but since joining CafeMom I have been learning more about networking at these sites and meeting other people. If you have a group or know of a group pertaining to any issues related to autism or special ed, please do let me know as it is really hard to find them there. Also I am listed under "autismfamily" as I am on most other sites if you care to connect.

In the recent issue of Exceptional Parent magazine they included the Toys R Us differently abled toy guide. Here is the link to check it out. I recommend several items there that I have reviewed here and on epinions:

The leap frog refrgierator magnet set
the thomas magnetic flip book
magnetic responsibility chart
coloring kit
moon sand
doodle pro
