What he'll do is get down on the floor next to the nightlight, and read by that light.<BR/><BR/>His favorite books to read at night are "How Things Work" and "The Big Book of Questions and Answers" (a kind of mini-encyclopedia for kids). I think he is attracted to both books partially because they cover topics in small (2 page) segments, which perfectly fit his attenion span.<BR/><BR/>We've tried audio books at night, but Buddy Boy either doesn't want to listen to them ("they're boring") or if he wants to listen, wants to keep repeating parts over and over.<BR/><BR/>He listens to music at night (at least partially because it masks other house sounds, and partially because he finds it comforting). He almost always wants to listen to one song, over and over, all night long. I'd think I'd go nuts listening to Schoolhouse Rock's "Zero, My Hero" all night long over and over, but he loves it. As Kristina Chew might say, "De gustibus non est disputandum".<BR/><BR/>JoeClub 166https://www.blogger.com/profile/01816977079856902634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-41262394403587660842007-09-15T17:29:00.000+01:002007-09-15T17:29:00.000+01:00oh boyu does that sound familiar, caught him as la...oh boyu does that sound familiar, caught him as late as 11:30 aat night with the nintendo DS.....and we have a standard rule of not allowing it in his bedroom. Have you guys thought about audiobooks. I usually play those at bedtimes. Spent a fortune on them, but also downloaded a lot from Peer 2 Peer networks like thhe kids download music and movies from.Bare Bones Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08443350468144468935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-77466164168415606882007-09-14T22:43:00.000+01:002007-09-14T22:43:00.000+01:00Our boys are both alike and polar opposites.

We have found him reading in bed long after he should be asleep; darn kid doesn't have to turn on the lights!Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647906900944224234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-25341362893341773782007-09-13T18:51:00.000+01:002007-09-13T18:51:00.000+01:00Bullet,You may be right.

I checked under the covers, but don't think I looked under the pillow.<BR/><BR/>VAB,<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure if I'll have to get permission to take pics of his classmates, but the flashcards is a great idea.<BR/><BR/>This last weekend we ran into the wife of one of Buddy Boy's doctors (who also serves as the receptionist in the practice), and she got down and greeted him and said something like "Remember me, Buddy Boy? I'm Dr. Cxxx's wife. I work in his office." Buddy Boy was like "No, not really." And turned away. <BR/><BR/>JoeClub 166https://www.blogger.com/profile/01816977079856902634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-42724374984166781852007-09-13T18:50:00.000+01:002007-09-13T18:50:00.000+01:00Imagination!

MK can pull it off now, but but not without tell you a few seconds later, which really limits the effectiveness. <BR/><BR/>As for remembering faces/names, we are trying something new this year. We took pictures of all the kids in his class and cut them into flash cards. We are trying rote memorization.VABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06652301858477760996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-29125633524805935202007-09-13T10:15:00.000+01:002007-09-13T10:15:00.000+01:00Under the pillow maybe?Under the pillow maybe?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
