This is the video that hooked my 9 year old that has Austim, he loves that there is writing across the screen, he's an amazing reader. Sorry about your tools but now my husband and I don't have to sneak and watch you when he's not in the room because we were only allowed to watch Pohl Barn. Doug is great but my son is a repetitive watcher so we've seen his videos over and over. He actually remembers them all by heart and even makes the sound of the machines. I have to video him watch it for sure. Love your work, can't wait to purchase some.

@@MoonpieCreations yeah it's hilarious because my boy is from Brooklyn but speaks with what ever accent the person in his favorite videos has. So he has a bit of a country twang when he copies you. He does Doug's accent really well too. It's so funny, sometimes he's British because of his cartoon Peppa pig. We were watching the green apple bowl and he was super excited to see the white plate fly off in the middle of the bowl. We watch it on fire tv but he has it playing at the exact time on his laptop too. So he replay his favorite parts over and over and over again.
