"Popped in DVD tonight and our daughter LOVED this DVD. She is a big fan of Baby Bumblebee and Laurie Berkner from Noggin (Jack's Music Show) and this is like those two combined especially for autism spectrum kids. She followed along with the Ready, set, sit and did all the motions. She even answered Balloo when he said, "What's your name?" She really responded to this more than any other DVD she's seen ever. The singing is nice and doesn't drive you crazy like some other ones.
She also loved the "Emotions" DVD as well. She made more facial expressions in that 20 minutes than she has in her life (angry, sad, happy, silly). Great, great DVD's- can't say enough about them. Hope there are MANY more coming."
Fianally Conneted!!

"Spectrum Connections, Connecting Body Movement is absolutely my boys' favorite DVD to date! Elizabeth Balzano, a Music Therapist, sings fun, light hearted songs that children on the spectrum of Autism will enjoy, and inspire. My boys sing the songs, even when the tape is not playing! The other in the series, entitles connection emotions, is also very good, very similar. The bonus material is helpful and encouraging for Mom and Dad, too!! I would say, if you have a little Autie at home, these are definately the DVD's for you!!"
Great for all kids--esp kids on the spectrum!!

"We love this dvd, & Miss Elizabeth!! The music is catchy, the kids catch on, and it is a really fun dvd for all kids. What I really love is how they handle transitions (in beginning of show, Elizabeth shows a stuffed animal & says that when they see it again, the show is over. She teaches things like sitting (when asked/told), stopping when prompted, in a very fun manner. It really gets kids moving too. Can't say enough good things--also it's 30 minutes long, perfect timing. Lots of ways parents/therapists/teachers could get involved w/ the show, and make it a very interactive moment. We also own the emotions dvd, and it is helping our child identify facial expressions, again, in a very fun way."
My daughter likes this DVD
