FabuRocks was created and inspired by our daughter FABU to help her with speech delay, learning disabilities, and ADHD at home. This led us to use gaming, unboxing videos, and live streaming as the main therapeutic tool that produced quicker and more significant improvement than she had ever obtained through conventional therapy. Now that FABU is older, she is no longer embarrassed for us, as a family, to openly discuss the obstacles she faces daily. After seeing her significant improvement ...

Within ten months, we had more positive results than all of 2 years of conventional therapy. This was enough validation for us that we had made the right decision as a family for Fabu by dedicating our full attention and time to her. At this point, Fabu was in 2nd grade and showing improvement not only in academics but also socially. She was not ye…

Fabu had not been exposed to gaming on multiple platforms such as Xbox and VR. VR gaming had just come out, and Fabu wanted to play VR games often. These were not only fun for her but all of us as a family. Our strategy was to expose her to a variety of gaming choices besides pc games like Minecraft and Roblox and app games like plants vs. zombies.…

Fabu enjoyed playing Minecraft, Roblox, and other games at that time. We began noticing she was losing attention quicker than we expected. We were hoping she would continue as engaged and motivated to play as she was with Pokémon Go previously. So, we decided at this point to switch up the content again. We put gaming on pause and returned to somet…

We now transitioned to gaming therapy after the Pokémon Go burnout. At this point, Fabu was reading under grade level. Reading was something that we wanted to include in the new therapeutic content. We were on the hunt for a game that she liked to play, which would have all of the factors we were looking for. We started with Plants vs. Zombies, whi…

We spent way too much time on Pokémon Go and knew that Fabu would lose interest at one point or another. Fabu is young, and with ADHD, her attention on something does not last long. Her interest in Pokémon Go lasted longer than we ever expected. We knew that her therapy needed to evolve into something new. By this point, we had done DIY, unboxing t…

Pokémon Go came out, and we were hooked immediately!! What we loved the most about this game was that it brought grandparents, parents, and kids out playing the same game. We also loved that we discovered new places, beaches, and parks we had never been to before. Most weekends were spent hanging out with other Pokémon Go trainers and participating…

After doing DIY gummy videos and toy unboxing, we knew the secret to continue obtaining positive results, and having Fabu engaged and excited was to switch up the content. We decided to explore IRL videos using positive reinforcement and fun family activities. Fabu loved to be outdoors and was open to participating more when she was entertained...…

At this point, we had around 15 videos posted on YouTube between the DIY gummies and the toy unboxings. We had believed that having a YouTube channel would be a fantastic way of having an archive where we could see Fabu’s progress throughout time. Her YouTube channel was also a way for family and friends to see her improvement. We soon noticed that…

So, we now have the equipment and software and are ready to take it to the next level!! Quickly we found that making DIY gummy videos was taking us too much time. We ended up more stressed than ever before. Fabu would start off very motivated to help but soon would lose interest and leave us making the gummy while she went off to watch TV or play. …

We now have all the equipment we needed to start, but we missed the software required to edit videos and create graphics for videos and thumbnails properly. Let’s not forget, our background has nothing to do with graphic design or videography, and we could not afford to pay someone to edit the videos and make the thumbnail art for us. We ended up d…

After making tough family decisions, we decided we were more than all in. We now needed to equip ourselves with the proper equipment. After much research, we quickly found out we had less than the basics. You may ask, what are the basics? Well, we had a cheap camera (HD camera), a couple of offices all in one PC and a lot of enthusiasm! After watch…

After 6 gummy videos, we found that making YouTube videos was no joke! They were taking a really long time from start to finish; between setting things up, filming, editing, rendering, and uploading so Fabu could see herself later, each video was taking way more time and energy than we ever imagined. However, the results were great. Fabu was even m…

After having a rough first day of shooting and not knowing if it was a humungous fail, it was time to look at the footage we had. FabuDad had never edited a video in his life. After many tutorials which taught him everything from intro to outro, transitions, overlays, lower thirds, and everything needed for a video to look good, his goal was to cre…

We had a YouTube channel with a channel intro. Now what? We knew we needed to integrate her having fun, content she was interested in, and then incorporate therapy. We asked her what she liked the most out of what she was watching on YouTube. At that time, gummy videos were trending, and Fabu loved watching these, especially those that showed them …

From the moment Fabu started vocalizing, she seemed to have her own language, which sometimes only FabuMom would understand. Fabu has always been a happy kid and expressed herself by hugging people. She did not often get frustrated when she was not understood. When asked a question she did not understand, she would answer in her own way, smile, hug…

FabuRocks was created and inspired by our daughter FABU to help her with speech delay, learning disabilities, and ADHD at home. At the age of 4, FABU was diagnosed with speech delay and immediately started going to speech therapy twice a week. After 2 years and minimal improvements, FABU was in 1st grade and testing 3-grade levels below in speech a…
