Marie is a really good sister towards Ezra and Simon! She helps both of them out with anything they need and looks after them. They are extremely lucky to have a sister like her :D
Agreed! Very true. ❤️
Ezra can also express his happiness. ❤
Thank you for sharing. ❤️
This place looks awesome, I wish I can go to the places, this birthday is a success!
Happy Birthday Simon!
Thank you, and yes, it was a great time.❤️
9:46 : My poor dad installed locks on his filing cabinet to keep me from pulling out the drawers and possibly having the cabinet get out of balance and fall over on me. I started playing with the locks (little bolts like the one on the door on the bottom right) and had them open within minutes. I stimmed with those locks for my entire childhood, and they're still there 3 decades later (though less well lubricated than they were), but never served any purpose but as a fidget toy. Our newer filing cabinet has no locks.
LOL! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
I love this video happy birthday 🎉 🎂 Simon we all love you ❤️
Thank you Raven, and right back at you!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily no problem ❤️
And thank you again, for the shout-out on your channel.

Happy 3rd Birthday Simon! 🎉🙂🚗
thanks!
Happy birthday Simon, 🎂🎈🎈
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am Jealous! I wish there was a sensory gym in the Ocean County mall. I have a non-verbal brother of my own.
That is so cool you you want to take your brother to a place like that! Hope you can find something nearby. 😀
He doesn't get sensory overload from people singing Happy Birthday? I always did.
Maybe a little, he covers his ears sometimes, but it will be interesting when he starts speaking to learn about the things that bug him. 😊
Would you want to leave the room? Or just wear earplugs?
@@7Aheadfamily I'd cover my ears but people would remove my hands. I wasn't diagnosed until my 30s so I didn't know what the issue was.
@@Tor_nado_89 Wow, I bet that was frustrating. Thanks for sharing. ❤
Happy birthday Simon
Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Happy B-day 🎉🎉🎉🎈🎉🎈🎈🎉🎈
thanks!😀
The owner of the place I go to for my weekly autistic adult social group tried starting one of these sensory gyms, but the revenue coming in from it was not enough to cover the $6k monthly rent and it shut down as a result. I think she is planning on trying again down the road in another location.
Yeah, that is the tough part. Matt and Heather, the owners of this gym, I don’t think make really any money on it. It’s more a charitable donation to the community and we are thankful they are so generous!
I watch your channel and I watch autism family
Thank you!❤️❤️
Happy birthday Simon, 🍰🍰
It reminds me it's been ages since I had went to any birthday party. ❤❤❤
Thank you! We should have had you come then! ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily ❤❤

It’s cool to see Simon play he looks so happy. I like that everything is safe and he can run and jump his little heart out. Happy Birthday Simon.
Thank you! Yes, it was such a cool place to celebrate!
i wanna go to a place like this so bad, i would take my super hyper cousins lol.
8:11
i wanna try to do that! this is the stuff i used to do when i was little. i used to spin myself on the swings often at recess! but im not autistic. i think this stuff just looks really fun and it is.
Yeah, it was a cool place, I hope you can find a place like that near you!
Watching this video I am like wishing I was in that room
Right! Such a fun room. 😊

Strangers
Im not sure I understand. 🤔
Regarding communication:
Today on the way back from dinner I saw a mother teaching her kid (who seemed to be somewhere in the three to four year old age range) about traffic lights.
She was pointing to some traffic lights and asking him which one they were waiting to see turn green before they can cross. She used the question “This one or that one?” and waited for an answer.
To do the same thing with Simon (if you aren’t already doing it) he will need to know (at least) the words “traffic light”,”red”,”yellow”,”green”,”stop”,and “go” (as well as “and”,”or”,and what they mean).
You will also want to make sure that Simon understands that the word “go” has more than one meaning. With Simon being toilet trained so recently it would not be unusual for confusion and possible toilet accidents to occur while you are instructing Simon on this (due to some possible confusion about word meanings in a given context). I had difficulties with this myself at least until I was five-and-half years old in preschool. Fortunately with Simon being level one/mild any confusion he might have in this area will likely last for much less time than mine did. I was confused about this for a year or more. And confusion that Simon might potentially have on this would likely only last weeks to months (at the most).
Such great ideas and advice! Thank you ❤️
I think I was at least four years old before I knew how to blow out a birthday candle.
Does Simon know how to ask questions yet? If not then maybe you and his speech therapist can begin working on this if you haven’t already. The first time I remember being able to ask any questions I was around four-and-a-half. With enough work on everyone’s part I think this should be achievable by around that time or at least by age five.
Some basic questions one might start with are “Why?” and “What’s that?” and any simple variations of these that one can think of.
It’s good to see that Simon is officially toilet trained during the day. As Simon’s speech improves one useful skill that ties in with that is to be able to ask where the bathrooms are in an unfamiliar location. On a related note when I was in school (until about first grade) I could often find a bathroom without much difficulty but I would sometimes get the boys rooms and girls rooms mixed up.
Back in the 1980s this was interpreted as a disciplinary issue when in fact I was genuinely confused for maybe the first month or two of the school year in kindergarten (in one school) and then first grade (in another school). By the time Simon gets to kindergarten (some time in the next year or two) you will want to make sure that he can do these things.
A little bit, yes they are working on that in his therapy. 😊
My 3rd birthday was at my aunt's house, followed within a few days by my 4th Christmas and my grandparents 40th anniversary. I was the first grandchild on that side and my brother wasn't born until the following July, so I was the star of the show.
That's what it was like when our oldest was born. He was the first grandchild on Adam's side on the family and we all used to just sit around him and watch him for our entertainment.
Awesome place 😊 Happy birthday
🎈🎊🎁🎉🎂
I landed a unique grant for a 100k sensory room (w access to a cool dr) to be put in a very remote location in PA, as parents were having to drive over a 100 miles for autism services…😩
Wow! That is so cool that you got that grant! So excited for you guys! That will be so good to have something closer for families with autism! Keep in touch! Love to see how it turns out. 😊
What a great, fun, safe play space for children! They all look like they're having soooo much fun!❤
Great birthday cake for Simon!
Thank you 🤗. It was so much fun.
Best part of my 4 youngest kids birthday’s is watching them open their presents 🎁 on Skype from their 11 year old brother who knows what to get them he haven’t been with us for 4 years gets exactly what they want ❤soon he will be with us for good we can’t wait 🔥 he loves his little brothers so much
That is so great! I love when siblings can be close
Happy belated birthday to simon he reminds me so much of my 3 year old right down to obbssesd with cars! 🚘
That’s so fun! ❤️😊❤️
Happy Big 3 lil man that’s what a good Party 🎈 is all about Family and good friends that’s what you call Best comes to Best🎉
You got that right! Thank you!
Happy Birthday to Simon. I like that they have a sensory gym for autism in the mall.
thank you. It was a fun spot to play
Very cool, I would like to have a birthday party there 🎉🎉🎉
Right! Such a cool place. 😊
🎊🎉🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁💕💗💖❤😊👌👍🧒
❤️❤️❤️
That gym looks so fun. Even as a 27 yo, I would love that place!
It was awesome!
Do they have any places like that around you?
I wish they had places like this for autistic adults. Like anywhere. I feel weird going to Skyzone or something when there's a bunch of kids, ya know?
@@7Aheadfamily I wish there was places like this in my city!
@@Tor_nado_89 That makes sense. ❤ I sometimes get some weird looks when I am playing in places like that with my kids, but I don't care. 😊

Happy birthday simon you seemed like you had a great time

I love revisiting this video. Its wholesome seeing everyone together. As of typing this comment, i have a birthday on may 8th.
Happy birthday in 2 days!!! Thank you for sharing that with us. I love that we have Simon's birthday documented too, so we can revisit it and relive it again, too.
@7-Ahead thanks guys I appreciate it!
❤️❤️❤️
It will be interesting to hear over the next year or two if Simon comes up with any unique words or phrases like those from today’s video on Matt Rose’s UA-cam channel titled “Kids not knowing the words for stuff” That video has some interesting examples of words that kids come up with for “icicles” and other things that adults know the words for but kids often don’t because they are not often used in everyday conversation.
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing. 💜❤️💜
I love sensory toys i have lots of figets i play with and a sound machine
That's Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
@@7Aheadfamily yeah it is
❤️❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily my favite fight is a squeeze. Ball love it
Lord some days are very hard for me
Does Mark dislike being filmed too much? I don’t see him as much as the others
He doesn't mind, just busy doing other things much of the time. ❤️
Do they get car sick?
Thankfully no, because we have had some big travel days...

@@7Aheadfamily oh sorry I didn't know
Not a problem thanks for asking. 😊
The swing 😊
Yeah.
Mark, Marie and binson are great siblings for the autistic kids. They looked like they had a great time Simon looked so happy.
Thank you! They are so great with the younger ones. We are so blessed to have such great help. :)
@@7Aheadfamily from what I can see they will be more compassionate people later in life
I think you're right. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily I know having more severe sibling and family members it did for me
Wow, how many siblings do you have with autism?
omg I was obsessed with the Cars movie as a kid. I got those cars toys when I was 8 and I remember all of the fun I used to have with them. I even brought it to church a couple of times. I probably still have them and can look for them in my basement rn.
That is awesome! Yeah, I think we’re going to do another video just about cars, Simon is completely obsessed with cars. 😊
I might have been obsessed if it had been out then, though I was obsessed enough with mechanical details that a car might regard the kind of movie I really wanted to see as a brutal horror film. My Halloween costume at age 8 was a V8 engine (well, really, a cross section of a V2 hand-drawn by an 8 year old with questionable motor skills and *labeled* as a V8, with real spark plugs glued onto the drawing at the cylinder heads. Oh, and a grody used carburetor for a hat).
Thats awesome! I bet that was an amazing costume! ❤️❤️❤️
This is so wholesome ❤
Thank you for sharing. ❤️😊❤️
