we went to the u of o for a study. that thing reads brain waves. michael watched tv played with toys and games wile the computer read what parts of his brain were working (kind of like a ultrasound for your head) i got to sit there and watch him on tv and watch the computer read his brain waves.(or sit with him but he was having fun with out me and it was really cool to "see" his brain working) we all had lots of fun! the first two days the kids took tests that they thought were games. then michael did this, emily didn't want to. so she didn't :~) but she's wanted to do everything else.
now once a week(at night) we go to there school and i meet with a group and learn new things about parenting (most of which i already do with the kids) building self esteem and stuff. and the kids play with other kids from there school class and learn stuff like what it means to pay attention, think, make choses and what thous chooses mean to them. oliver even gets exited when we go to the night class. and it's all done on a 3 to 5 year old level. we will do that for 8 weeks. then we will go back to the u of o and do the game testing and hat thing again to see what they have learned.
i'll keep you updated :~)
