Have Yourself a Little Taps Christmas



Santa hit it out of the park this year. Meet Disney's Little Taps. Sadly available only in Asia, we had to buy ours on Ebay from a seller in Hong Kong. Grandma got the fifth from someone in Oregon, but it was Asian in origin too. It's sort of the perfect autistic toy - ordered, repetitive, soothing. Jimmy's been watching these Little Taps videos on You Tube since the end of the summer and he loves them. He didn't put these things down for nine hours today. He's just delighted.

I am putting together an e-mail to the powers that be at Disney to see if there is any chance these things will be released here in the States. The mark up in the secondary market might kill me long term. But seeing Jimmy so happy, so engaged with Christmas... it was so worth it.
