Ice Cream Posted By: Rubiegem8280
Posted On: 07/21/2008
My daughter has a special place in her heart for Ice Cream. I understand this and sometimes even indulge it. Especially with a rough day. We had one of those at speech today. So I thought there was no harm in running by McDonalds for a small cone. Oh man! There was white cream all over my car! And she loved every little moment of it! Ok, so I have a bit of cleaning to do, but to give her a moment of being a normal two year old was priceless! I wish there were more of these to go around!

Mine too!! I have found that the milkshakes work great (if she can drink from a straw) to contain a mess and he can handle it by himself without spillage.

Mine too - ice cream has always been a favorite. Now that he is older, he can explain some of it to me - cold helps him feel less anxious, the ice cream settles his nervous tummy ache and it just tastes delicious. Smile. Enjoy! Deb

Who doesn't love cold ice cream on these hot days? Makes me want to make some gf/cf coconut ice cream for my son as a treat today. The only problem is that he will expect it every day!

Just think-- it wasn't only a taste treat, it was a full-body sensory experience! Isn't it funny, some of the "normal" behaviors are the ones we don't want them to do?
