📚✨ Book Week is just around the corner!

To celebrate, we’re sharing some of our clinician’s favourite books and the many ways stories can be used to support communication, language, emotional development, fine motor skills, social skills and more. 💬🧠✋

From Bluey to Beautiful Oops! and Where’s Spot?, books create so many natural opportunities for learning, connection and play. ❤️

And remember, reading doesn’t need to feel like therapy! Follow your child’s lead, comment on what you notice, let them skip pages or read the same page again and again, and most importantly, enjoy the story together. 📖✨

Swipe through for some of our favourite books and therapy ideas! 👀

At Hide and Speech, we’re always learning so we can bring the latest evidence into our sessions 💗📖

This week’s takeaway? Practice really does make progress 🌟

Every time a child practises a skill, they’re helping their brain build stronger pathways, making that skill easier and more automatic over time 🧠💪

☀️Therapist Picks of the Month! ☀️

From Theraputty and bubbles to trampolines and timers & visual schedules, these resources can support so many important skills. 🧠💪

Our Occupational Therapy team loves using fun, engaging activities to build fine & gross motor skills, bilateral coordination, and support sensory regulation, emotional regulation & executive functioning — all while keeping therapy playful! 💙🩷

Every item comes with us for a reason, but not every child will use every tool. ⭐️

In our sessions, toys and resources aren’t rewards or distractions. They’re supports that help create opportunities for communication, connection, regulation, learning and play.

Some children love bubbles. Others head straight for the whiteboard. Some spend most of the session with a fidget in their hands. All of these are valid ways to engage.

Our therapy is child-led, strengths-based and neuroaffirming, meaning we work with each child’s unique communication style, sensory preferences and interests.

Hide and Speech, our Allied Health Assistants (AHAs) are part of the team that helps support your child’s therapy journey 💜

They work closely with your child’s Speech Pathologist or Occupational Therapist to bring the therapy goals created by you and your clinicians into fun, play-based sessions, helping your child get more practice with the skills they’re working on.

This might include speech, language, social skills, fine motor skills, daily routines, and more!

AHAs are a great way to add extra support between therapy sessions, in a way that feels fun, relaxed, and meaningful for your child 🌱

If you’d like to know more or see if AHA support could help your child, feel free to reach out to our friendly team! 🌟

✨ Sensory Tool Spotlight ✨

Body socks, wobble cushion and fidget pebbles are three of our clinic favourites that make such a big difference for the children we work with 💗

Sensory tools aren’t one-size-fits-all, and finding the right fit can be a game-changer for your child’s everyday life.

If you’d like to explore what sensory tools and strategies might work for your child, our friendly OTs are here to help. Get in touch to learn more 🌟
