While pressing Alt and X keys, use the the number keys on the keypad to view farther out, closer in, etc.

Welcome to Wonderland, Daisy!

We hope you enjoy your visit, and will continue to drop in when you can.
I've read several posts by many of the regulars here, and you aren't alone when it comes to a child with special needs, so there are lots of levels designed with kids in mind.
Have a look through some of the previous posts on the
Levels, Levels, Levels board, and you'll find lots of childrens' levels already uploaded. I myself am working on some levels that my 7 year old step daughter will enjoy, so I'll be sure to upload some as soon as they are done.

I too have a son with special needs (CP and very limited vsion) and two Grandsons who love Wonderland also. At one time I asked for some kid levels and the response was great! Look back through some of the older posts, most kid levels are identified with Kid in the title.
Let us know what level of difficulty he can handle. Very simple, easy, medium etc.... How old is he? Are there any that you have downloaded that he can play? Which ones? Those things would give us some ideas.
Here in Wonderland the folks are really nice people and I'm sure you'll get some fun levels.
By the way, welcome to Wonderland.

ps:
love your sig

Hi daisy!
Just wanted to welcome you as well.
As janetgalle said, there are a lot of kids levels already on the boards and I'm sure there will be many more in the future. Just let us know if your child has any special requirements.
Might I suggest that you make a special folder in the Custom Folders file labeled "Kids Levels" and put them in there. It certainly helps me keep track of them. I also made folders for all the level contributors and download their levels into each one. Much easier!:)
By the way we have two junior contributors, Littlejg and Andrew. Their levels are very good and made by children. Your child might find them entertaining as well, especially if he/she knows they were made by another child.
Again, welcome!

Welcome Daisy from me too.
Just to add on from the others, little jg and Andrew are just 6 years old.
I'm sure your little one will enjoy their levels.
You will meet some fantastic people on this forum, everyone is so friendly and willing to help.
Enjoy.
Maureen.

Hi daisy,
Now I understand the sig.
My little fellow is 13 and has very bad ADHD and is also Autistic. His condition is worsened by Bilateral Frontal Polymicrogyria. (Basically he is physically brain damaged in both his frontal lobes.) This complicates matters as most of the drugs used to treat his conditions fail to work.
We have been trying lots of stuff for a long while now, much of it to no avail. Iain is a wonderful boy though, brilliant at his best but your worst nightmare at his worst. We never give up hope though.
Anyway, you're not alone out there.
~Old Bear (my full title since you're new

Hehe, I always knew this as
"When you worry,
when in doubt,
run in circles,
scream and shout!"

Never heard that little ditty before, but I like it! Sounds like something that should be put in needlepoint on a sampler and hung in my house. ('Cept I don't have any idea how to "needlepoint.")
