Playing Chimes the Junior Way

Junior started his day with the usual airway treatments and exercises before we enjoyed listening to one of papa's sermons.  He then wanted to play at his sensory/moon sand table while I was fixing lunch.  He loves all the Spider-man stuff that is now on the wall around his activity space. 
 I then asked him what he wanted to do and he chose music and decided to play with the chimes he got for Christmas.  Using his hands wasn't working because of the limited positioning ability of the bar the chimes are mounted on.  We tried several things and then decided to try using the elastic strap that we mount his paint brush to on his head.  It worked great and he had a ball being able to play the chimes by himself.  Still couldn't find a great spot for easy access for the chimes but this works until we figure out something better.  The long thing he is using to hit the chimes is the extendable stylus from his ipad.  Yes, when there's a will there's a way.
 

After some music time Junior was ready for a movie with Abby.   You can tell he is having a sleepy day.  Plenty of smiles but not his huge ones.
