Yay, home menu themes! Changelog for version 9.0.0-20U:

• Users can now use themes to customize the design and sounds of the HOME Menu
  • Five themes are pre-installed and additional themes can be purchased from the Theme Shop
  • Themes can be changed by using settings located within the HOME Menu settings
• A feature has been added that allows users to capture screenshots of their HOME Menu

The five pre-installed themes are plain color variations (black, pink, yellow, blue, and red). You can also buy themes for popular characters and to match future New 3DS cover plates.

Time to grab one to complement my future wooden New 3DS covers!

IMPORT New Nintendo 3DS White / Black (3DS XL Blue / Black)

As the release for Discovery Family continues to close in, more information on the network set to replace The Hub on October 13th is being revealed.

Great! Now tell us when season 5 is starting! I can't take this hiatus any longer!

5-Year-Old With Autism Paints Stunning Masterpieces 

Autism is a poorly-understood neurological disorder that can impair an individual’s ability to engage in various social interactions. But little 5-year-old Iris Grace in the UK is an excellent example of the unexpected gifts that autism can also grant – her exceptional focus and attention to detail have helped her create incredibly beautiful paintings that many of her fans (and buyers) have likened to Monet’s works.

Little Iris is slowly learning to speak, whereas most children have already begun to speak at least a few words by age 2. Along with speech therapy, her parents gradually introduced her to painting, which is when they discovered her amazing talent.

“We have been encouraging Iris to paint to help with speech therapy, joint attention and turn taking,” her mother, Arabella Carter-Johnson, explains on her website. “Then we realised that she is actually really talented and has an incredible concentration span of around 2 hours each time she paints. Her autism has created a style of painting which I have never seen in a child of her age, she has an understanding of colours and how they interact with each other.”
