Hi I am a mother of a 6 year boy Evan. Married for several years. Evan was diagnosed with PDD-NOS when he was about 18months old. He also has sensory based issues, food issues, and behavioral difficulties. I new something was wrong when Evan and I attended our first Gymbore class when he was about a year old. The class was going great until the instructor dumped out a bunch of balls all over the place and Evan went crazy for "ALL" the blue balls. He would look across the gym and see that another child had a blue ball and he took off after that child and knuckled them to the floor until he got the blue ball. We attended the next class and the mothers began to look at me differently and guide their child away from Evan and I. Needless to stay we dropped out of baby Gymbore...LOL.....to this day blue is Evan's favorite color and will flip a nutty if another kid has a blue something or other. Every day is a challenge or a battle but at the end of the day I wouldn't do it any other way.
