my matching maniac!

Mighty Max impresses me yet again! I have worked on memory games with him before, but he never seemed to quite "get it." But along came just the right app "Farm Flip"...and he definitely got it! So cute...and he is really quite good. Very smart kiddo...very happy momma!

And here is a video of Max in action...love his face when he gets it right!

Leslie, Arlin and Katie Kauffman said...: Amy, I wanted to pass along another app that Katie likes. It's called First Words: Animals. Does Max have that one? A picture of an animal comes up on the screen, and tiles that show the letters to spell the name of the animal are scrambled below the picture. You have to drag the tiles into the correct order to spell the animal. The animal name is shown right below the picture, faded back, so it's really more of a matching game, but it's a great way to promote spelling and reading too.; April 10, 2011 at 10:49 AM

charge syndrome

CHARGE syndrome is a recognizable (genetic) pattern of birth defects which occurs in about one in every 9-10,000 births worldwide. It is an extremely complex syndrome, involving extensive medical and physical difficulties that differ from child to child. The vast majority of the time, there is no history of CHARGE syndrome or any other similar conditions in the family. Babies with CHARGE syndrome are often born with life-threatening birth defects, including complex heart defects and breathing problems. They spend many months in the hospital and undergo many surgeries and other treatments. Swallowing and breathing problems make life difficult even when they come home. Most have hearing loss, vision loss, and balance problems which delay their development and communication. All are likely to require medical and educational intervention for many years. Despite these seemingly insurmountable obstacles, children with CHARGE syndrome often far surpass their medical, physical, educational, and social expectations.
