It’s the small things that make the BIG difference

Fascinating or frustrating, I think that depends what side I get out of bed. Apples and ice are both very important to Lali they can be the difference between a good and a bad day at school.

When Lali started day-care she would take two green apples with her each day, her day-care teacher would peel and cut (under strict direction by Lali). After about a year of green apples Lali would only eat red apples which lead to many late night or early morning runs to the supermarket.

As Lali’s fine motor skills developed she could then master the use of a apple peeler but that also brings its own challenges as red apples need a red peeler and green a green peeler.
