🏀 March Madness Snack Attack! 🏀

It’s time to bring a little NCAA Division Basketball Tournament fun into your kitchen!

Create a basketball inspired snack using orange slices and blueberries (or blackberries or red grapes). Arrange the fruit into the shape of a basketball and let your child help:

🍊 Peel the oranges
🫐 Wash the berries
🏀 Build the basketball

This simple activity works on fine motor skills, bilateral coordination, and following directions, all while getting in the game day spirit!

Make Your Child the “Big Kid” 🧸🚽

We know that teaching someone else is one of the best ways to turn knowledge into action. Try making your child the “big kid” by having them teach their stuffed animal or doll the steps of potty training.

This playful role reversal builds confidence, reinforces routines, and helps your child feel more in control of the process.

If you are looking for some extra support for yourself, reach out to us and we are happy to be that support system for you!
