Cathy Piso,

Owner of Kids Vancouver.com

My name is Cathy Piso and I run Kids Vancouver.com. I wrote a letter to give to my son's preschool to let them know more about Autism due to it being Autism Awareness Day. I also wanted to let them know a bit more about my son, and thought I should also share on here as well.

Logan, my son, was diagnosed in December of 2012 with Autism. We realized about 2 and half years old  his speech was not increasing. He was sick many times with ear infections and sore throats from age 6 months until 2 and half years, so we assumed that he was behind due to all his sickness. All his other milestones were normal until then. When I asked my friends they told me, "don't worry Cathy, he is a boy, boys are late with talking!" When preschool came I really noticed how far he was behind and when I saw how he was at school he seemed so different. We questioned, could it be Autism? But when we looked it up, Logan didn't seem to have all the "symptoms".

Introducing the Vancouver Lego Games. Five students, from the University of British Columbia, decided to organize a charity LEGO building event to benefit the Canuck Place Children's Hospice as part of a class project.

The Vancouver LEGO Games will bring together 300 participants (competitors and spectators) for Canada's largest charity LEGO building event.
