🎄✨ Holiday fun, Kow-style!

Last week, our team headed to the Kow Kristmas Kabaret, put on by the witty, wildly talented a ca****la group Apocalypse Kow — featuring our very own Coach Devin!

With special guest Emmett Michael, surprise appearances from MLAs Janis Irwin and David Shepherd, and nonstop laughs, it was the perfect way to celebrate the holidays while supporting the amazing work of Firefly Institute.

From Ninja Turtles to Elvis… this show was AWESOME! 🎤🕺

🔤 Z is for Zippers! 🔤

Zippers are everywhere—on clothes, bags, shoes, and even fidgets! ✨ While buttons and shoelaces can be tricky, zippers make dressing and organizing quick and easy.

For kids, coat zippering is a functional but sometimes challenging skill. With OT support, they can develop key skills like pincer grasp, finger isolation, and using both hands at the midline—leading to zippering success! 🧥👏

🎄✨ December is here, full of holiday magic, festive gatherings, and lots of excitement! But let’s be real, it can also feel like a whirlwind. 💨 Between family traditions, work events, and kids’ celebrations, the pace can get overwhelming... so here’s a gentle reminder: it’s okay to pause, breathe, and make space for rest and reflection. 💛

Ideas for slowing down:
🧘‍♀️ Mindful breathing: Take a few minutes to ground yourself with your breath.
🛋️ Cozy corner: Curl up with soft blankets, calming scents, and a favorite book.
📴 Screen break: Step away from social media and focus on being present.
❄️ Winter walks: Enjoy fresh air, snowy scenery, and nature’s calm.
🙏 Gratitude: Write down a few things you’re thankful for each day.
💃 Move mindfully: Stretch, dance in the living room, or relax with some yoga!

Take care of yourself this holiday season — you deserve it! ❤️✨

💡✔️ Listen for a little golden nugget of wisdom from Coach Lisa in this episode of ! Teamwork makes the AWESOME happen - it's all about collaborating, and not staying in our own bubbles!

When OTs, SLPs, and PTs join together, we can truly support the child and family.

Embracing the Qi 4C (Collaborate, Create, Coach, Celebrate) approach means we're all working together, whether it's in the moment at a visit or behind the scenes! 👍🌟

Woosh! 🎉

✨ "In the whole world, there is no one like me" 💛

Every person has strengths, talents, characteristics, and traits that make them awesome and every person's awesomeness is worth celebrating!

Paula Audrey Rivero’s book #🌈IamAWESOME is a colourful and vibrant story about learning to love the amazing, surprising, beautiful and powerful person that you are, even on the hard days 💫✨🎉.

It is a perfect gift for children (and adults) this holiday season who you'd like to remind how awesome they are!

🎄✨ Tips to prepare for the holidays:

🗓️ Use holiday-themed visuals to help set context for events from holiday concerts to opening presents together.
🎁 Unwrapping presents can be noisy and overwhelming—unwrap one at a time, use gift bags or cloth instead of paper, or wear preferred ear covers. Give those who need it the space to de-stim and step away if they feel overwhelmed, or to let them unwrap their presents on their own if they would like to do so.
💝 Some families let kids unwrap one present the night before and save the rest for the big day.
🤗 Gratitude can be conveyed in many ways! A big hug or hand squeezes are a great way to show appreciation for gifts, meals and company.
🩳 If wearing comfy sweats is preferred, honour that! Being present with family is more important than how we look.
🎄 Not everything or everyone needs to be seen and done on the same day! Spread out celebrations throughout the week to even out the pace and give time for rest and recovery.
🍴 Older teens and adults can help with tasks like clearing the table or walking the dog— a great way to help during the holidays without having to be constantly engaged in socializing.
🌟 Create new traditions! Hold on to family traditions and rituals that give YOU and your family comfort, even if they're different from traditional holiday activities.

Happy Holidays! Celebrate in ways that feel right for your family 💛

There are perks to rural practice > we come to you and collaborate as a team! 💪

Play isn’t just fun — it’s a powerful way for kids to name their feelings, notice how others feel, and practice expressing themselves. ✨🫶

Coach Heather, SLP, and her client got hands-on with Play-Doh, exploring and acting out different emotions! 🎨💛

Hands-on, playful learning is a big part of our practice at Qi Creative 🙌.

Coach Ashley had so much fun this week with a family doing no-pressure, playful food exposure! 🍫✨

They started by making Santa Hat brownie bites (so good they disappeared before Ashley could snap pics… oops!), then had a silly moustache contest, and wrapped up by turning into Rudolph with a red raspberry nose! 🦌💗

Play, creativity, and food — the perfect combo for building confidence and joy around eating. 🎉

🎧 Holiday Season Qi Talks Throwback! ❄️

We’re revisiting Episode 14 with Coach Taylor, all about Regulation — a skill that’s especially important during busy holiday moments. ✨🎄

Her reminder: if your child isn’t in danger, it’s completely okay to take 30 seconds to regulate yourself first. That pause creates the space between what’s happening and how we choose to respond. Whether it’s holiday stress, a meltdown, or a tough parenting moment, regulating ourselves first lets us lead with calm, connection, and compassion. 💛

“In the space between stimulus and response lies our power to choose.” — Viktor E. Frankl
