Product Description A new beginning is Watch Me Learn's first video that was produced due to parent demands! A New Beginning is a video for children who are just beginning to speak, interact and combine words. The video involves beginning language, physical gestures, gaining attention, beginning imitation - all critical skills that are necessary for further skill development. The video teaches children by modeling these skills through object identification, blowing bubble, simon says, duck duck goose, tag, ball play and more. The scenes are short to maintain a child's attention. The scenes are engaging as they are always children playing or performing an activity. Requesting, gaining someone's attention, pointing, interracting with others and more are just some of the skills that are gained from this video. This video has led to the production of 6 more videos and has proven to elicit beginning speech and actions from many developmentally delayed children. It is successful internationally, in schools, therapy centers and in homes! A great beginning tool for the child embarking on speech and socialization. Review After watching the first Watch Me Learn® video just a few times, my non-verbal daughter began saying 'hi' to the kids on TV! These videos offer a new way of learning. Incorporating ABA and Verbal Behavior techniques, Watch Me Learn® videos are motivating, educational and fun to watch! --KaraThe WML Videos were introduced to the staff of my school during a professional development seminar. Since then, every teacher in our school uses them in their classrooms on a daily basis. I have noticed such an improvement in the children from watching them. The children first imitate the actions from the video and with proper guidance generalize them to natural settings. They are also picking up words and phrases and using them in the appropriate contexts. Every time we watch, someone picks up something new. We have had parents in the class to observe and when we watch the video, they say that s where he got that from. He does that at home. Many parents have asked where to buy the videos so they can use them at home. I consider WML to be an integral part of the curriculum and I recommend it to teachers and parents. I thank you very much for creating such a wonderful series --Jill Maher, M.S. NY City SchoolsIn recommending [Watch Me Learn autism treatment videos] to parent after parent, I was overwhelmed by positive feedback. Now we are using them at the Helping Hands® Saturday Socialization Program to improve self-efficacy in game play as well as accuracy and initiations. Since videos in general are so popular for many kids, typically developing as well as kids on the Autism Spectrum, it makes sense to teach children much needed skills by letting them watch other kids that they can relate to. It is similar to the concepts we use at Helping Hands, basing social skills learning on the utilization of peer models. In this way, parents can use the videos to help teach their children how to emulate peer models. They can then generalize these skills to various settings and enjoy the games that once brought them so much anxiety! --Vanetta Larosa, Ph.D., B.C.B.A.
