Happy Wednesday 🥳 We're sharing in the attitude of gratitude 🙏🏽 this month...today we are grateful for our OTs and COTAs ✨️

Occupational Therapists and their assistants (OTs and COTAs) are so important for helping our children with fine motor skills, ADLs, and all things sensory 💙♾️

Thanks again for all you do ☺️👏🏽

Happy Monday 🥳 We encourage you to go into this week with hope ✨️

📢 Remember parents and caregivers...
"Don't let a broken system convince you that you have a broken child. "

Right now more than ever, many systems are broken, including education. Our educational system is overwhelmed and in many ways...in disarray 📉

But your child is amazing 💙♾️...keep advocating for the education your child deserves 👊🏽

Let's get ready for the holiday season...

The holidays can be a joyful time, and a little overwhelming too! For our kids with sensory sensitivities, all the excitement can sometimes feel like too much. That’s why we love this Holiday Sensory Survival Guide from our friends at Eat Play Love Occupational Therapy. 🙌🏼

It’s full of simple, thoughtful tips to help your child feel more comfortable, confident and calm, so your family can enjoy the season in a way that works best for you. 💕 No need for perfection. Just meaningful moments, big or small.
