Snake education!

An important lesson on types of snakes on the trail was a surprising but interesting turn of events. We teach observation without touching and interfering to all animals on the trail, but this was such a fun learning experience for everyone!

Talk about sustained attention 🧐

POV: you take the time to let them explore What’s your favorite way to let your little one lead the way?

Wait, what’s a play passion?

Kids LOVE to destroy things, that’s why I like to call it a play passion. These are the things they really enjoy, but most of the time it’s not appropriate at home or in school. That’s part of why it’s important to give them an outlet to explore this type of play. Bonus: it’s great heavy work for regulation, improves strength and coordination!

Other play passions I’ve noticed:
-digging
-climbing
-water play

What are some play passions you’ve noticed?

*Clip from last year because the kiddos (and their therapists) are so ready for fall 🍂🍁

Why is vestibular input so important?

Vestibular input is your sense of movement and balance.

Some signs your child may be under-responsive to vestibular input:
🤸‍♀️Constantly moving, spinning, jumping, or rocking
🤸‍♀️Doesn’t get dizzy easily (can spin for a long time) 🤸‍♀️Craves upside-down positions or rough play
🤸‍♀️Has trouble sitting still or focusing in calm environments

On the flip side, if they are over-responsive to this input they may seem overwhelmed or scared of completing everyday tasks.
😵‍💫 Avoids swings, slides, or spinning
😵‍💫 Hates being picked up or moved quickly
😵‍💫 Gets motion sick easily
😵‍💫 Fears feet leaving the ground or head tipping back (washing hair, lying down)
😵‍💫 Seems rigid, cautious, or controlling about movement

Vestibular input also plays an important role in visual development and emotional regulation.

Not sure if your child is over- or under-responsive? DM me or talk to your local OT for more information.

Wandering through wildflowers is enough.

The power of unstructured play is just as important as directed and goal oriented play. Unstructured outdoor play is great for building confidence, curiosity, and problem-solving skills!

It supports regulation in a world where children are so busy and have so little time to just exist. This goes for adults too, sometimes we just need to exist and that time is valuable and productive.

Don’t wait until you have the perfect activity, just going outside IS enough.
