Love this 🫶🏼

Our Sensory Series movie this month is Toy Story 5! Lights stay low, volume stays gentle, and everyone gets to enjoy the movie their own way. A calm space, a great story, and zero pressure.

Love introducing sand and water play in therapy! Today we did a car and boat wash and ocean/sea creatures themed play, paired with books to boost those language skills!

Messy hands, growing communication skills🫶🏼Sensory play supports speech, language, learning, and connection through play-based exploration. From building vocabulary and following directions to practicing turn-taking and communication, some of the best learning happens when children are engaged, curious, and having fun.

You worked hard all year to support your child’s communication 🤍

Summer doesn’t have to undo that progress.

With the right support, it can actually be a time
where skills grow in more natural, meaningful ways.

No pressure. No overwhelm.
Just connection, play, and intentional support.

If your child has speech or language goals (IEP or not),
I’d love to help you navigate what summer can look like!

*New client eval not required for summer speech if copy of current IEP is provided with speech and language goals 🙂

So much language in one simple activity- Cars and my favorite blue track! 🚗💬

Playing with cars and tracks can target:
• Expressive language (words + short phrases)
• Receptive language (following directions, concepts)
• Social skills (turn-taking, joint attention)
• Play skills (cause/effect, pretend play)
• Speech sounds (beep, vroom, go!)

Play isn’t “just play” — it’s how kids learn best. 💛
