Autism Movie Picks

Home on a Friday night with nothing to do? Well, nothing makes a party like Preschool Prep Co.'s Meet the Shapes! Yeah, that's what I used to think, until we met...Meet the Numbers!!!

No matter that she's known her shapes, numbers, etc since she was 2, to someone who is addicted to anything repetitive, these videos are the equivalent of a Hollywood thriller, or a Hollywood cocaine habit. She stands right up against the tv, riveted, to see if the lady will say it again: "Octagon...OCTagon...OCTAGON...octagon..." They do the whole spiel with all the basic shapes. And now that we have Meet the Numbers, there are some wild times around here: "Seven...SEVen...SEVEN...seven..." But when we put it on looped play, look out, that's when the wheels really come off the wagon!
