🥰 nothing like a little sunshine on a blustery day! 🌻

Too many dyslexic children have to work extra hard, showing grit , resiliency and self-advocacy skills to survive school systems which do not have high quality literacy and numeracy instruction.

Imagine a future where every student with learning differences can attend schools with educators who are trained to understand, value, support, nurture and fully educate them.

Too many educators do not know how to teach literacy and numeracy, let alone dyslexic students.

The burden on the dyslexic students is very intense to help support the educators who have not done their own studying to stay up-to-date about learning differences.

What a fabulous article from The Informed SLP about toys and holiday gifts for language learning!

Take a moment to look!

As December rolls around, toy marketers go into overdrive to convince parents that their ultra-high-tech beeping flashing Bluetooth-activated contraption will boost children’s development. But there’s actually a good amount of data to back up quite the opposite!⁠
⁠
Parents of children with developmental delays may be especially susceptible to this type of marketing, so we can play a role in educating parents about how to be smart toy consumers.⁠
⁠
BTW: All the tips in this research review are equally relevant to us clinicians stocking our therapy closets and planning our sessions! ⁠
⁠
Check out our FREE review, "Toy time!" to learn more about toys and development. Plus, grab the parent handout (English and Spanish versions!)⁠ at https://www.theinformedslp.com/review/toy-time
