When a client has a limited diet due to oral sensitivities, a combined approach of desensitisation through the use of TalkTools oral sensory motor therapy activities, and The Feeding Trust's Food Explorers programme, can achieve great progress.

Our SLT Rosie began using TalkTools with this particular client earlier this year, to begin the process of oral desensitisation. This has been the build-up to introducing The Feeding Trust's Food Explorers programme working alongside an Occupational Therapist from Creative Occupational Therapy.

As first sessions go, the introduction of Food Explorer activities was very successful with our client describing, touching and tasting some new foods.

It was a pleasure to deliver two days of Makaton training at one of our client's schools recently. The school requested the training to help equip staff with the skills needed to support all students who have communication needs.

The whole class team attended and they were a great group to teach, engaging fully with the course content; both theoretical and practical.

At the end of the two days, they felt better equipped with Makaton signs and symbols as well has having the confidence to go away and use their new skills.

If you would like to learn Makaton, or progress your existing Makaton learning to a higher level, then check out our forthcoming courses here: https://www.eg-training.website/training-services/makaton/

Our therapist Amy came across this rolling miniature wheelchair on a recent visit to the Meadowhall shopping centre in Sheffield.

Even though it's been part of the Build a Bear Workshop's product range for a while, it's still great to discover things like this that really help to develop children's understanding of disability through play, and the importance of inclusion.

The Summer holiday provides opportunities for your child to build vocabulary naturally through everyday experiences. Whether you're in the park, at the beach, on a woodland walk or simply out for a stroll, take time to talk about what you can see, do and describe together.

Building vocabulary helps children:
- Understand and follow conversations more easily.
- Express their thoughts, ideas and feelings.
- Develop stronger reading and writing skills later on.
- Make connections between words, concepts and experiences.
- Grow confidence when communicating with others.

All you need is conversation!
