ABA Session In the Community

Sat 11:00 AM at Fountain Valley  Promenade.

Halloween is approaching so I asked Mrs. Nhu if it’s ok to have ABA session while William going Treat or Trick on the Halloween day so she suggested to cancel the Friday session and have the session on  Saturday at the shopping center in Fountain Valley.  We agreed to meet Ms. Han in front of the Albersons supermarket.

I dressed William up as a car racer Lightning McQueen and took him to the meeting place.  10 minutes passed 11:00 I still didn’t see Ms. Han anywhere, turned out she went to wrong location and was waiting for us there.  So while waiting for Ms. Han to come to us, I took William for Treat or Trick.  At first William did not want to walk but I told him we could get candy if he walked so he started to comply.  We walked along the shopping center and went in each store to get candy.  William had a hard time to pick the candy when people presented a bowl of candy in front of him.   Also when people hand him the candies he reached out his hand to take it instead of showing his basket so that they can put the candies in.  It was his first time so maybe he was overwhelmed and did not know what to do.  It struck me that I did not teach him that!

We found a table near by the pizza place, so we sat down to rest and let William enjoyed his earned candies.

Few minutes later Ms. Han found us; we continue our way to knock on the stores for more candies.  It was about noon so we decided to go back to the pizza place and have lunch there.  I bought a slice of pizza and 1 drink for William.  We found a cozy corner inside the restaurant and ate lunch there.  William kept standing on the chair and go under the table; until I let him watched the Winnie the Pooh clips that he sat still.  There’s a game room inside the pizza shop so we let William play in the game room after lunch.

We left the place around 1:30 PM.
