When we ask parents what their priorities are for their child they often mention things like building leadership, empathy and responsibility.

And we agree! Finding opportunities to foster these life skills takes time, effort and intention.

Working on this type of skill building includes creating learning environments that allow a child to get as many repetitions in throughout all of childhood.

Pictured here is an example to get your parent brain wheels turning. ⚙️ Big brother is teaching little brother how to tie his shoes

If you have multi aged siblings at home, how can you help them learn from one another?

Can you build up your older children by asking them to teach their younger sibling something meaningful?

Decades of developmental and educational research affirm that peer interaction — including children teaching or collaborating — enhances emotional, social, and academic outcomes above solitary learning! How exciting!

Meet, EXPLORE's, Sarah McDemus 🌲

Sarah brings a lifelong love of the outdoors into everything she does. Growing up camping and exploring nature in Michigan, she built a deep connection to the natural world that continues to shape her work today.

With experience spanning wilderness therapy, adventure programs, residential youth care, and 15 years as a Science Special Education teacher at South Shore High School in Hingham, Sarah is passionate about helping children discover their strengths and build confidence.

At EXPLORE Pediatric Therapy, Sarah finds joy in the simplest moments playing in the woods, splashing through mud puddles, and watching children thrive as they learn through nature-based experiences. She truly believes the outdoors is one of the most powerful classrooms there is.

When she’s not outside with our groups, you’ll find Sarah hiking with her family, traveling, or tending her garden.

💚 We’re grateful to have Sarah as part of the EXPLORE team.

Today is Giving Tuesday a day to make a difference in a child’s life. If you’ve ever wished you could help a child feel more confident, connected, and joyful, this is your chance.

At EXPLORE Pediatric Therapy, we’ve seen firsthand how nature-based therapy can help children blossom. Maybe you know a child who struggles with confidence, motor skills, or emotional regulation. Our Forest Adventure Groups, Kindergarten Readiness Play Groups, and outdoor therapeutic camps have helped so many little ones in our community grow and thrive.

That’s why we created the EXPLORE More Scholarship Fund to ensure every child has the chance to join us outdoors, regardless of their family’s financial situation.

Your Giving Tuesday gift no matter the size means a child can join our groups, build resilience, and experience the healing power of nature. Your generosity truly changes lives.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in our mission and for helping more children grow with confidence and joy. 💚

New on the Blog: Why Parent Coaching Changes Everything

Therapy doesn’t end when the session does - it continues at home, in daily routines, and in those little moments that shape your child’s growth.

That’s why parent coaching is such a powerful piece of the puzzle. It bridges what happens in therapy with what happens every day helping families feel supported, confident, and connected.

Learn how parent coaching works, why it’s so effective, and how it can transform your child’s progress.
