Late night, Frosted mini-wheats and a Monday.

Today at Interactive metronome, Mr. E really struggled to focus. Sue would remind him to watch the screen or the light and not a minute later he would wiggle and start looking around at other things. Another reminder and another minute and he was unfocused again. It wasn't until the very last round that he was completely focused and was able to finish the session with over 1,100 total reps.

I feel the extra distraction was a combination of going to bed late, getting up early, eating frosted mini-wheats for breakfast (to much sugar and no protein), and the fact that it is the beginning of the week. Mondays get us all right? He was in a fabulous mood which is not always the case when he has 3 strikes against him but I'm sure the sugar-high played the biggest part.

During the session Sue had him try cross-over which is tapping both hands on the opposite leg but the bottom of his feet started to irritate him to much so they went back to tapping his hand on his leg.

It's so interesting how it affects his senses so much, I knew he had some tactile sensory issues but it wasn't until we start doing the interactive metronome that we discovered how much so.
