Rainy days can’t stop the pancake fun! Great last session of winter term today - so much collaboration with the kids today and big thanks to our amazing volunteers who cooked up some delicious chocolate chip pancakes for everyone to enjoy 😋

Another beautiful day exploring the forest ❤️

Playful ways to practice breathing exercises as a regulation tool today. We got very into the colourful bubbles and learned “hot chocolate breathing “, even making clay hot chocolate models to take home to practice with. All of the information we cover in sessions is emailed home to families each week for continued learning, practice, as well as fun photos to see what fun their kids got up to!

The apple master is one of our favourite tools for fine motor skills and developing confidence in kids as they get a lot of satisfaction from peeling, coring, and slicing their own apple and then enjoying a delicious snack! 🍎

Task analysis today to work on executive function goals. The kids worked together to break down the different steps in a gardening activity and had fun creating dragon hair pots. Breaking down complex, multi-step tasks and providing visual cues can be helpful to work towards functional goals in daily life such as morning routines.

When you’re already dressed for rain, embrace water play! We had lots of fun with our water balloon launcher and mud kitchen play today - lots of opportunity for collaboration, turn taking, planning, conflict resolution, and lots of sensory exposure through splashing in puddles and squishing our feet in the mud!

Another glorious day of winter sun! Today we started learning about different body sensations and played some fun games to teach body scans, a foundation of self regulation. We also had so much fun exploring the forest, stream, ice crystals, and plants around us.

An absolutely spectacular warm sunny day to start off our winter groups! It was so nice to meet the new families today and see familiar faces!

The emphasis on today was relationship building - lots of playful games and exploring to help the kids become more comfortable with us, the other children, and the areas we will be exploring in future weeks. Looking forward to a great winter ahead!
