🥰🎉 More inclusivity for our LOs with autism. ❤️🥹

For one afternoon last Sunday, an entire Broadway theater belonged to autism families.

That’s not a figure of speech. For its Autism Friendly Performances, TDF buys every single seat in the house, then makes them available at discounted prices only to families, schools and groups that include autistic people. No stranger behind you sighing. No one to apologize to.

Inside, the show itself changes. Sudden loud noises, strobes and spotlights are reduced. The house lights stay dimmed but on. Break areas staffed by autism specialists sit just outside, so anyone who needs to step out can, and come back when they’re ready. Families can download visual guides beforehand showing the theater and the characters, so nothing arrives as a surprise.

Sunday’s show was Ragtime at Lincoln Center, the first autism-friendly performance in that production’s history. It sold out.

And it was only the opening of TDF’s largest season yet, ten productions in all. Six are announced so far: Hadestown on August 23, The Great Gatsby on September 27, Maybe Happy Ending on October 25, the Christmas Spectacular with the Rockettes on November 8, and The Lion King on January 31. Four more come next spring.

This isn’t new, either. The program started in 2011 with The Lion King and has quietly run for fifteen seasons.

Details are on TDF’s site for anyone who wants them.

📖Last July 9-12, 2026, Teacher Ange from High 10 Therapy Center, completed and is officially a S.O.S. Approach to Feeding in Acacia Hotel, Alabang. All of the participants can be considered pioneers as this is the first time this was taught in the Philippines! 🥂 to the 200 new Filipino SOS trained therapists!!

This continuing education course is “designed to assess and address all the factors involved in feeding difficulties.” This is good news, dear parents, as our LOs’ picky eating/problem feeding problems will be addressed! Playing with our food, here we come! We are excited to offer this highly specialized service soon!

‼️FROM NO CRAWLING TO WALKING⁉️

🙌🎉 We want to high five our newest “therapy graduate” Leonard for finishing his PT sessions!! 💪🏽🥳

📖Story time: He started with being UNABLE TO CRAWL 🚷and now he’s ABLE TO WALK UNASSISTED ON LEVEL SURFACES‼️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶

Last April 2026, he was OFFICIALLY DISCHARGED by his rehab doctor after 14 MONTHS or 46 PT SESSIONS with our very own Teacher MG. 🥳💪🏽 let’s cheer them on as he has to undergo OT now and SLP sessions soon!

Teacher MG credits the fast progress, among other things, to Leonard’s good cognition 🤓because he learns so fast! 💨And also let’s not forget his parents’ efforts and dedication as they follow through with the recommended PT activities at home! So cheers to all!! 💪🏽🥳🙌

✅ BTW, Teacher MG used an eclectic approach — a mix of neurodevelopmental approach (NDT), gross motor skills training to facilitate early intervention (Leonard was less than 1 year old at start of therapy.)

📋We will be posting Teacher MG’s credentials below for anyone who’s interested. PT sessions with Teacher MG are available:

Every Monday @ 11AM, 3:30PM, 4:30PM
Every Saturday @ 4:30PM

Abiso sa mga magulang, mabuting sumunod sa recomendasyon ng inyong Dev Ped, OT at/o SpEd kung anong educational program ang mainam sa inyong anak na may disability, upang matuto ayon sa kakayahan niya at kakayahan ng mga g**o niya.

Lahat ng naisaad na serbisyo ay meron sa aming center. High 5, High 🔟!

SUMMA CUM LAUDE, BEYOND LIMITS 🎓

Chryss Jhymm B. Calica, a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship from Dalubhasaan ng Lungsod ng San Pablo, completed his degree with Summa Cum Laude honors.

Born with cerebral palsy, Calica also earned recognition as one of the awardees of the Hiraya ng CALABARZON: Natatanging Iskolar ng UniFAST 2026, honoring scholars whose journeys reflect perseverance, excellence, and purpose.

His achievement stands as a reminder that disability does not define a learner’s potential. With access, support, determination, and an inclusive learning environment, more students can reach the goals they have worked hard for.

Congratulations, Chryss Jhymm B. Calica! Your journey gives hope to many future Iskolars ng Bayan. 🌻

📚✏️🚌📓Nagstart na ba ang school ng lahat?

Here are some helpful tips on how to ready them for their first days!

High 5, High 🔟!

🌟 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊-𝐓𝐎-𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐃𝐎𝐖𝐍

The week before school starts is about more than buying supplies and preparing uniforms.

For many children—especially those with developmental delays, ADHD, autism, learning differences, or sensory challenges—the transition back to school can bring excitement, uncertainty, and changes in routine all at once.

A little preparation can go a long way in helping children feel 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒇𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕, 𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒛𝒆𝒅, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒔𝒖𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔.

Instead of waiting until the night before school starts, consider using the week leading up to the first day to gradually practice important school-readiness skills:

✅ 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞
✅ 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬
✅ 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐤, 𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐱, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬
✅ 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫-𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
✅ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬
✅ 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐲

These small daily experiences help reduce anxiety, increase predictability, and strengthen the skills children need to participate more successfully in their school day.

Every child prepares differently, and progress doesn't have to happen all at once. 𝑺𝒎𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒑𝒔 𝒑𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒍𝒚 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒂 𝒃𝒊𝒈 𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝒅𝒂𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔
