Good vibration and dark places

Theo went to his first meeting with Judy today. We only have a month left to get a diagnosis. Judy definitely see Theo needing fine motor skills tuning in order to gear his brain and hands to help him write. Kindergarten is coming soon and it is the right time to pursue this challenge. Judy said he could visualize what he wants to draw or write but his brain couldn't coordinate with his hand to create what he visualize. Theo is left handed which makes it a challenge for me to show him how to hold a pencil correctly.

I found out something new about my son, he likes dark enclosed space which I find refreshing. At night in the bedroom, he demands that at least one light is on at all times. I am not talking about night light but a main light in the corner of the room. Judy's guess is that he is afraid of something at night.
I guess open space vs close space makes for comfort or discomfort.

We skipped the trapeze with Clemmie because I want to be on the safe side and so does Judy after what happened at the zoo. And we found that she likes vibrating things such as the turtle pillow and a vibrator or a massager. Things to add to her sensory diet.

I found her a vibrating teddy bear.
