Levi, 3 years old, NE

Wish submitted by:

Levi has autism and is nonverbal. He loves showing off his favorite toys and can often be found making different shapes out of magnetic tiles. Levi is also very affectionate. He enjoys hugs and will hold your hand to get your attention.

Levi uses self-soothing techniques to help regulate his emotions both at home and at daycare. These techniques include jumping, spinning, jumping off furniture, and running back and forth. A trampoline was recommended to support his self-regulation at the foster home. Levi enjoys movement, and his mood improves significantly when he is active. Having a trampoline at home will allow him to burn off excess energy safely, without the risk of hurting himself or another child. It will also provide him with a fun way to expend his energy.
