"I do think if he could manage to be successful in something like swimming, then he might be more confident in trying new physical things, but we have to find private lessons and they are very expensive."

We actually got simming lessons at YMCA for dd7. She has issues with motor planning and visual perceptual skills. We had to work with the Coach (who was a college student) to explain what babybear needed. She was great, using a multisensory approach. DD is really doing well with swimming and it is also great for her hypotonia!

Good Luck! Swimming is great!
