Team-based care helps children build skills that last beyond a single session—and that’s where meaningful progress happens. Here is what Andra Johnson, RBT has to say about collaborative care at Child's Play Therapy Center: “Collaboration with other professionals has made a phenomenal difference in my client’s ability to stay calm and focused. It has also allowed for greater generalization of skills learned across therapies—more than would be possible without a team of professionals maintaining close, consistent contact with one another."

🍪 Happy National Cookie Day from Child’sPlay Therapy Center! 🍪

Today we’re celebrating one of the sweetest days of the year — National Cookie Day!
At Child’sPlay, we know that fun, connection, and creativity are at the heart of learning, and what better way to practice important skills than through a hands-on (and delicious!) activity?

Here are a few therapy-friendly ways to celebrate at home:

💛 Fine Motor Fun:
Rolling dough, pressing cookie cutters, and sprinkling decorations help strengthen hand muscles and improve coordination.

💬 Language & Communication:
Talk about shapes, colors, and flavors. Practice following directions, sequencing steps, or describing the finished cookie masterpiece.

🎨 Sensory Exploration:
Smell, touch, taste, and explore! Cookies offer a multi-sensory experience that can be calming and engaging for many children.

👫 Social Skills & Teamwork:
Baking together encourages turn-taking, cooperation, and shared joy — important building blocks for confident communication.

Whether you're baking from scratch or decorating store-bought cookies, we hope today brings a little extra sweetness to your family’s day. 🍪💙

As the year comes to a close, it's a great time to take full advantage of your insurance benefits. Don't leave any unused benefits behind--after all, you paid for those! Schedule additional sessions for ST, PT, OT and counseling before the year ends. Using your available insurance visits can help maximize your coverage while supporting your child's progress. Make sure you get the most out of your plan! 🌟💙
