My son is 7yrd old and has Autism and ADHD would love to buy Magnetic Tiles to extend his interest.

Auckland

Due to his special needs (ASD, ADHD, Global Developmental delay, Inattention and Hyperactivity), I left my full time work to give more time and attention to him and now working only on call (getting not enough work). Since, he was 3 he is totally obssesed with Thomas and Friends engines. He is a very loving and bright child. But Lacks Social skills , Behavioral issues (screaming, yelling, hitting himself). He only likes to watch Thomas on T.V. so my girl (2yrs old) she miss out and suffers a lot. I do have another tablet for her but he doesnt let her watch anything. He jumps on trampoline for sometime, rides his bike but soon he will come back for Thomas.

I saw the new Magnetic Tiles in my daughter's centre, so I thought i should give it a go. I ordered them online to see how my son reacts with it, he may or may not like them. It took me 5 weeks to get it delivered from tutorwarehouse as they said their warehouse is in Australia and the courier was stuck at customs.

As theya rrived, I showed them to my son and I was extremely happy to see that he loves playing with it. He did spent 1 hour playing, making castle, then shed for his trains but because there were not enought pieces, he got frustrated . I am willing to buy few more sets to encourage him to play and spend time with it. It costed me more than $100 for one set, so i would love to get some kind help from generous people in this beautiful country. Highly appreciated. Please contact me if needed or willing to meet my son 0210651488 Kind regards.
