But, when you put CARS and Sweethearts together you get one love crazed boy!
Family Fun magazine is one of my favorite places to head to when trying to find activities for AJ because I can always find an activity that fits his ability level. No cutting? No problem. No candy?

<p>But, when you put CARS and Sweethearts together you get one love crazed boy!<span id="more-52097"></span></p>
<p>Family Fun magazine is one of my favorite places to head to when trying to find activities for AJ because I can always find an activity that fits his ability level. No cutting? No problem. No candy? No problem.  No matching today? No problem. So, when his teacher said to make it easy, simple, stress free AND fun, BUT hold the candy I had to think of something.</p>
<p>I found this fabulous activity called Wheel Fun at <a href="http://jas.familyfun.go.com/arts-and-crafts?page=CraftDisplay&amp;craftid=11586">FamilyFun.go</a>.</p>
<p>We amended it to include a Hot Wheel instead (only 8 kids in his class and no candy allowed), I drew the lines in pencil and he will trace them, and he will sign his own name.</p>
