🎉 Happy Birthday to Jamie! 💚
roberts1102 is one of those rare therapists who truly sees every child — meeting them exactly where they are and helping them shine in their own way. Her sessions are filled with connection, laughter, and growth. 🌟

She brings together incredible clinical skill and a warmth that makes every child (and parent!) feel capable and supported. It’s the perfect blend of knowledge and heart — and the results speak for themselves.

She’s also the therapist I trust to work with my own kids, and their skills have skyrocketed since she started with them. 🙌

We’re so lucky to have Jamie as part of the Green Light Village — she helps every client believe they can do anything. 💚

Halloween is one of our favorite holidays! 💚🎃
We love walking through the neighborhood and seeing so many families who are part of the Green Light Village — former clients thriving and current clients trying out their new skills in real life. ✨

From big “trick or treats” to new foods and brave moments, tonight is full of the kind of magic that reminds us why we do what we do. 💫
Wishing everyone a cozy, joy-filled, and SPOOKtacular Halloween! 👻🧡

There’s something magical about watching our preteens light up when they walk into group and see each other 💫

Our Preteen Social Language Group is a neurodiversity-affirming space where kids learn about their own brains — what helps them feel calm, connected, and confident. Together we explore:
🧠 creating a personal Brain Recharge Menu
🎒 building a Sensory Toolbox that actually works for them
💬 practicing how to stay in a conversation, even when ideas differ
🤝 collaborating and negotiating as a team

We’re helping these incredible kids understand what they need to thrive — at school, at home, and everywhere in between. Watching their confidence grow (and their friendships too!) is the best part 💚
Thank you .zy for developing such a special group🫶

💋 Why We Target Lip Closure in Myofunctional Therapy

Lips at rest should gently touch — not strained, not open.
When lips stay closed, it sets off a chain of good things:
👃 Encourages nasal breathing (which filters, warms, and humidifies air)
🦷 Supports proper dental and jaw development
💤 Promotes better sleep and oxygen flow
🗣️ Improves speech clarity and muscle coordination
🍎 Helps with chewing, swallowing, and overall oral control

When lips are often open, the muscles around the mouth can become weak and unbalanced. This can affect feeding, speech, airway health, and even facial growth.

Through myofunctional therapy, we use fun, targeted exercises to strengthen and retrain these muscles — helping kids (and adults!) maintain a natural, relaxed closed-lip rest posture.

💚 Built by a mom, grounded in clinical expertise.

When children with and without disabilities learn side by side, something powerful happens — empathy grows, stigma fades, and all kids learn that differences are not deficits.

Research consistently shows that inclusive classrooms help general education students develop stronger social skills, increased acceptance, and more positive attitudes toward peers with disabilities. 🌱

👉 Inclusion doesn’t just help children with special needs — it helps every child become a more understanding, compassionate, and collaborative human being.

Let’s keep building classrooms and communities where everyone belongs.

🌟 Why Social Language Matters 🌟

Social language isn’t just about knowing words — it’s about knowing how to use them with others. Strong social language opens the door to play, and play is the foundation for learning during the early years.

When children have the tools to connect, share ideas, and respond to peers, they unlock richer play experiences — which, in turn, fuels their language growth, problem-solving, and confidence.

At Green Light, we intentionally pair peers in dyads so they can practice building these social language skills together. Side by side, kids learn to take turns, negotiate play themes, repair communication breakdowns, and celebrate each other’s ideas.

✨ Social language builds connection.
✨ Connection fuels play.
✨ Play powers learning.
