Some Interest in Bubbles (Signs for More)

Video Summary

When encouraged by his mother, Raquel, Ethan becomes interested in the bubbles the evaluator, Connor, is blowing. Ethan makes an effort to pop the bubbles with his finger and even signs to request more. However, his requests are infrequent, delayed and often not well coordinated. He often does not look at the examiner and requires the support of his mother to stay engaged in the interaction, despite his interest in the bubbles.
