  1. My ds and I watched together--he (11) kept saying "that's me" and "that's what I do"--it opened up a huge discussion about how different the inside of his brain is from other people's. He really related to "Thinking in Pictures," too, which we read together after watching the movie. He said if he wants to think in words he imagines them on a page in his mind, and reads them to himself. It was so enlightening to us both to discuss these differences between people. He had never really realized how differently he thinks from neurotypical peers. I also loved the movie for the honor it does to Temple Grandin's mother, and aunt, and science teacher--because it reminded me of the way we loving adults in our child's life can help them be all they are meant for.
  2. My son liked this one because it looks like a regular vest, kind of stylish: http://www.otvest.com/ I loved doing business the woman who runs the company, too--clearly it's a home business, run with love.
