October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month, which is a wonderful time to show off our children and to celebrate life with Down syndrome (well, okay, I pretty much do that EVERY month, but in October it’s official…).
For my part, I have a copy of my favorite DVD about Down syndrome that I’d love to share, Down Syndrome: The First 18 Months, by Will Schermerhorn. It’s a wonderful introduction to all the important issues and people in the world of DS. If you’re interested (for yourself, or for your local Down syndrome support group), leave your name in the comments and I’ll choose a winner at the end of the week.
Too, I have lots more stuff I want to share throughout the month, so if you don’t win, don’t worry! There will be other chances for more books and learning aids that I love and want to share.
UPDATED TO ADD: We have a winner, chosen out of a hat, by Carter. It’s #1, Cleo. Send me your mailing address at jennifergrafgroneberg (at) yahoo.com and I’ll get it out to you. Congratulations!
Happy October to you too Jennifer !!!. I’m so happy, this is a BEAUTIFUL celebration!!!.
