Comments on: the “T-crawler” is in production! http://wintertreedesign.com/2008/04/04/the-t-tunnel-is-in-production/ I'm a busy work-at-home mom, designing, illustrating, and growing children...one who is gifted and one who has Down syndrome Thu, 11 Aug 2011 04:03:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Gretchen http://wintertreedesign.com/2008/04/04/the-t-tunnel-is-in-production/comment-page-1/#comment-1645 Gretchen Wed, 13 Aug 2008 20:54:14 +0000 http://wintertreedesign.com/blog/?p=200#comment-1645 Liita, I LOVE the T-crawler! It's a hit wherever I take it. Therapists, parents, and of coarse kids, are drawn to it. My speech therapist surprised me with her enthusiasm about the many speech uses for it: action words (in, out, under, through, etc), peek-a-boo and other object permanence games, upper body strengthening, colors.... We also put it vertically and Margot had oodles of fun saying "up" and "down" as she pulled it over her head, strengthening her upper body at the same time! :) Liita,

Great ideas you have! Love seeing all of you, and you are so far away. Well, really not that far, but far enough. Went into some of your 'links' and enjoyed seeing others too. Keep up the great work, as you always do! Glad you are getting some much needed sleep........ Off now, as I'm almost ready for bed now..........and it's not even 8:30 pm. That's retirement life, I guess. Sleep whenever we want......day or night. Hugs to all. Rose Hi Liita,

Glad you are getting some much needed sleep……..

Off now, as I’m almost ready for bed now……….and it’s not even 8:30 pm.
That’s retirement life, I guess. Sleep whenever we want……day or night.

Hugs to all.
