Another therapy appointment

Dylan's therapy appointment yesterday went very well. His OT, Amy, brought this exercise ball for Dylan to bounce on. She is trying to get him comfortable with playing on something that his feet do not touch the floor. He didn't quiet like it at first but then after Hanna tried it a few times, he really liked it. Also Amy brought a vibration toy for him. It's the green thing in his hand. It has a soft plastic gator at the top that he can put in his mouth - which of course, he does not. It continually vibrates to hopefully lessen his sensitivity to light touch. It actually seems to calm him down. He was upset when Amy got here for his therapy and as you can see in this picture, he enjoyed bouncing on the ball and LOVES the vibrating gator!! It's so awesome because each week she brings something new for Dylan to try and we get to keep the things she brings!!
