Playing cricket with a bunch of folks/friends today near the beach. L loved the repetitive movement of bowling, collecting the ball and bowling again.
I had to laugh though when he pointed to Big D and said "Daddy, you go there... (behind the stumps)...you be whippet keeper".
Dog of a game cricket.
Physical exercise does seem to regulate L emotionally. Shame it is so hard to get him to engage in it. He definitely gets more regulation from running type exercise, rather than swimming. Swimming, he tends to bob about a lot and ask to be spun around in his float rather than using his own body.
I have read accounts of other children on the spectrum that have benefited from physical exercise in this way.
Anyhoo....I am personally stuffed and am off to bed.
