Wow. one of the most amazing things i have ever seen. amazing little girl.

love these videos. I agree that the use of a cane is the best approach even at this age. I think we should be careful how we write on here as sometimes people may come across as pessimistic instead of realistic and optimistic. Great job, please post more of your students w parental approval;).

This is very inspirational!

Don't mind the ignorant troll on here. He has been on my videos too. He obviously doesn't have a clue. This kid is doing great. My daughter will be 3 tomorrow and walks in the grocery store with me and basically walks everywhere. She knows how to use the cane and is fearless. She won't walk far or fast without it. Thank God the good educators are paying attention and learning how valuable it is to give a baby a cane. My daughter had hers at 8 months.

Good idea - I will see if I can get some. It is now a year later and she is awesome with her cane - unprompted!!! My subcontractor actually teaches her now, but I will see if I can get some video. I have some videos of some others I would LOVE to show but need to get parental consent to post first.

Where do you live -I do presentations sometimes and would honestly LOVE to show you these little guys traveling-amazing. I have found it is a matter helping them realize that the cane can give them feedback and infomation about their world - then they want to and do use it -no cane tossing. I start with them with canes even before they walk just touching toys out of their reach with cane or long object so they realize what is beyond their reach and use this extention of their body to find it.

This child would be better served with an AMD or a push toy.
gambrosez 2 years ago
I USED to think that too! Through my 21 years of teaching, I have gradually changed my thoughts. As COMS trained, I am not opposed to using AMD's or push toys for some children. What works for one is not necessarily what is best for another. Use of an AMD/push toy is NOT in the best interest for this child or several other toddlers I have instructed. They are not only capable of, but ARE already using their cane to protect themselves and as a probe to identify objects in their envoronment.
