I have tried occassionally to teach her to do that. But, usually,
I am in a hurry, or there are so many folks waiting at the elevator, that we
don't get consistant practice. I think I have actually done more luring
than anything else to help her find the button. Will try your suggestion,
especially around the house.
Try a medical building after 5pm.. mine is always dead and you can play with
the elevators all you want! That's where Alex learned to find elevators and
electric doors.. Start with a bigger piece of paper and holding it in your
hand.. then work to holding it against a wall or doorknob..and then tear some
pieces off as you go until it is post-it size.. then start using the post its
on the buttons outside in the yard, then out on the street..and then get them
smaller until you can fade them out..people may laugh when you first use the
post-its in public.. I just explain and they are amazed..
