Yesterday Frankie had a visit form his EI specialist. She comes once a week to our house to work with him, which he really loves! She has been working for a while, using a toy bank with Frankie. He has learned to match up the same color money to the part where it goes in. And then watches as it disappears and comes back out, teaching cause and effect.
His favorite part comes next, he gets to play with trains. We sing a train song, one that is also sung as his EI class on Wednesdays. He then gets to put the trains together and apart, build them and put people and animals in them. We sing "Old McDonald" to introduce different animals, his favorite being the "ba ba" (sheep). Then they all go to sleep and we sing "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" and then read a book.
She brings a circle rope type toy called "stretchie". Frankie gets to hold it while singing songs and moving it in different directions. He also gets to play with balls, playdough, crayons, cars on different days. He loves singing more songs to practice talking, as well.
