Congratulations! You're an Asperkid! Let the excitement begin as we go through the items one by one. And let's find out what Josh has to say about them all. Who better to begin this celebration than an Asperkid himself? Here we go...
1. After opening the package and removing the confetti he notice a bright yellow shirt. On the front upper corner it read, Let's be different together and on the back... Asperkids, AMBASSADORS OF awesomess.
Let's just say, he LOVES it and couldn't agree more with the message! I'm thinking mom and dad need one of these too now!
2. Next he discovered the Bubble Wrap Emergency Stress Buster! Having a stressful day? No problem! Just grab a handful of bubble wrap and pop away... It really is poppable awesomeness, we needed to use some the other day. Whew, it came in really handy!
3. How did Jennifer Cook O'Toole know Josh's favorite color was green? When he unwrapped the petri dish "bacterial" soap and noticed it was green...all smiles! "I'm going to save this for a special occasion" he said! "Or maybe just keep it forever!" He's a collector so...
4. Now the next has become my favorite! SWISH (from Think Fun), a card game that improves your spatial IQ! Josh is still getting the hang of it, but it's sure to become a family FAVORITE!
5. A Blobimal DIY Putty Monster was his next discovery. "This is SO COOL" he exclaimed! I have to agree with him on this one. You can create your own putty monster with lots of monster parts included. Such a GREAT sensory activity for the kiddos to get involved with!
6. A little silver tin, what could this be? Well, there's an Asperkid's Fidget Bracelet inside! "Now I can look cool and keep my fingers busy at the same time", he said. And it was a camouflage colored one too, "double score"!
7. When he saw the next item he backed away a bit at first. It was a small fragrance bottle and like many Aspies, he's not too big on strong smells. But wait a minute, let's read the bottle... Simple, subtle, singular scents. Each day. Everywhere. Pick-Me-Up Cologne Spray. He took a chance and sprayed a little on the back of his hand. A smile began to form and then, "Oh My God, I smell so good! Can I wear this to school tomorrow? I believe this will be very pleasing to the girls at school!" I think I may just have my hands full now...
I can't thank Jennifer Cook O'Toole, and Asperkids, enough for making Josh feel so special. Although all of the items in the box were amazing, the note attached said it all:
Josh,
Congratulations on being an Asperkid! Being different is exactly what makes being a hero - a dreamer - a world changer possible. Always be proud of who you are, because we sure are!
XO Jennifer
It doesn't end there... He received a very special video from Jennifer herself. 15 minutes of complete inspiration!!! She really knows how to make an Asperkid feel special!!!
