Timothy EAC special focus individual referral

Timothy is almost 2 1/2 years old. His special needs are bilateral ear deformity and deaf. At 18 months he learned how to walk. When he first learned to walk he looked like a penguin, waving back and forth taking small steps. Over time he would walk much better. He is always smiling. When caretakers don't pay attention to him, he'll slip out of the room. He'll jump on the bed. Sometimes in the morning the caretaker will find him in the bed of another child.

He left the baby group in February 2012. Now with older children, he will sit quietly and not run. Although he can not hear, he is good at imitating. He sleeps in a toddler bed. He drinks milk through a straw and will be learning to drink from a cup soon.
