Nurturing & fun DVDs for spectrum kids

Hi all, I just wanted to drop a note to introduce Spectrum Connections, a
new entertainment DVD series for children on the spectrum of autism and
related disorders
www.SpectrumConnections.com.

I am the creator and producer of the programs, and Spectrum
Connections came about out of my desire to give my now 4-year-old son,
who has autism, some great entertainment that would, at the same time,
address his "spectrum" needs. I am a TV producer in New York City and I
simply wanted to offer something good, high quality, nurturing and FUN
to kids like my son.

Through my years in children's animation, I was able to team up with
some wonderful ex Disney producers who have a company called
Brandissimo! Inc. They were just as excited and committed as me to bring
the best quality entertainment to children with special needs. The result is
the first two of 13 episodes of Spectrum Connections. The series is
distributed by Brandissimo! Inc. and Genius Products, and is available at
SpectrumConnections.com, Amazon.com, BN.com, Borders (online and in
the stores) and other places.

Spectrum Connections' goal is to connect with spectrum children on a KID
level. The shows are not meant to be therapy - they are fun and
entertaining while communicating core curricular in an engaging way. Led
by a wonderful licensed music therapist named Elizabeth Balzano, MA,
MT-BC, the programs model a music therapy class: Volume 1 features
songs about EMOTIONS ("The Happy Song", "The Sad Song".. etc.) and Vol.
2 deals with BODY MOVEMENT and SPATIAL RELATIONS through song and
example.

My secret agenda was to make shows that "typical" kids would be a tad
envious of because they were so darn great - and I have been told that
we've succeeded. One of the great things we've found about Spectrum
Connections is that autistic kids love it, typical kids love it, and parents
do too. This is fantastic, as it has been my great hope that this series
would help bring everyone together. Spectrum kids are isolated enough
already.

I hope you spend a moment to check out the series at
www.SpectrumConnections.com. On the site, you will find info about the
programs, the history as well as video and a music clips from both shows.

If you like what you see, please help in spreading the word. …and of
course, purchase! We have worked hard to keep prices low, and the
programs are under $15 everywhere – the lowest prices ($11.19) are
found on SpectrumConnections.com, our home site.

We welcome all feedback in general, and hope for your comments and
thoughts for future episodes.

Thanks for spending the time to read this posting, hope you like
Spectrum Connections, and happy holidays!
