@pipandme My kids do homeschool PE through the local YMCA. They have kids with all sorts of levels of abilities and my kids love it. Maybe there is something like that in your area?
I know how you feel with the frustration of not having services right now. DS2 has definitely slipped despite what we’re doing at home, and I hate it. He was supposed to see a new specialist in August and now they’re “hoping for October.” It’s a lot.

I was going to suggest looking into a gymnastics program with a special needs class, but if the thing you already tried didn't work out, I dont know? But, I have seen some really neat videos of kids with Down syndrome competing in gymnastic events.
I don't know anything about Pip's exact situation, but I know in a general sense that growth is not linear. I hope this is just a temporary plateau and he's gearing up for a breakthrough. But in any case, I can imagine it's frustrating to see so what looks like no progress over a year. Has he progressed in other areas that you can feel good about? Didn't he just potty train?
You're doing such a good job with him. I'm sorry you've hit a frustrating slow down.
