[QUOTE="kim75062, post: 699191, member: 20727"] yes mine has always hated coloring and anything that required fine finger movements. I had brought it up to the peds a few times but they weren't very concerned about it. He loves legos and plays with them daily. He was very much into Thomas the train and hot wheels cars and spent a lot of time playing with them and arranging the tracks etc. I'm sure that has helped some. As a baby he also didn't like play dough or anything with a gewy texture in his hands. he would mash all the colors together and throw it away saying it was poop. I haven't tried giving him any in a long time, maybe he will play with it now. As for a rewards system I am completely for bribing him to behave at school. We have a chore chart that he does at home to earn either coins or minutes to use on his electronics, its his choice how he wants paid for them. Most of the time he chooses minutes over money. he gets 0 minutes for free and must earn all time on electronics. He gets bonus coins or minutes for the color he is on at school. And at the end of the week we will take him somewhere special is he has no red days as well. Ive even tried going day by day this year. I told him if hes not a red I will take him to the movies that day or to MacDonald's etc. It hasn't happened yet this year. Which is why I really think he cant help most of the things he is doing.
