Last week's session was all about understanding how our bodies and brains work 🧠💙

Through movement, hands-on activities, and self-reflection, our kids explored their sensory systems ➡️ discovering their sensory preferences, recognizing body cues, and finding strategies that help them feel calm, focused, and regulated.

Each child earned their "Sensory Needs" LEGO block this week marking another tool in their growing toolkit of self-awareness.

They left with practical strategies they can use at home, at school, and in everyday life. Tools that give them power over how they feel.

Parents ➡️Want to learn more about sensory systems and how to support your child at home? Visit our resource page (link in bio) for activities and strategies.

BHS of My Outlet co-op students at their weekly meeting 💙

With a button-press machine and magnet maker, they spent the afternoon turning their illustrations into tangible pieces — buttons, magnets, and keychains featuring their artwork.

The people who didn't know each other a few weeks ago have become a great team, genuinely enjoying each other's company. The conversations and ideas they're sharing are building a strong foundation for their project outcomes.

We can't wait to share what they're creating with you! 🎨✨

One of our recent Kids Signature Program classes was all about rhythm, confidence, and making NOISE 🥁

Facilitator Jonah led a bucket drumming session that connected rhythm and music to confidence building. Every beat was a chance to try something new. And every child left with their "Confidence" LEGO block—and a little more belief in themselves.

Confidence isn't built overnight. It's built in small, intentional moments ➡️ Visit our resource page (link in bio) to learn how you can support confidence building at home.

🔌Coming up next this Sunday: We're welcoming a pediatric occupational therapist for an experiential class on sensory systems. Your child will explore their own sensory needs and leave with greater self-awareness 🧠✨

No Kids Signature Program Class this weekend!

This long weekend is the perfect time to pause, recharge, and practice what we've been building together.

Bring the LEGO Toolkit home:
🧱 Boundaries – Practice with your child saying "yes," "no," and "I need space"
🧱 Friendships – Host a low-key playdate or reflect on what makes a good friend
🧱 Third Spaces – Explore a new space together (park, library, backyard hideout)
🧱 Confidence – Celebrate something your child did well this week
🧱 Chill Zone – Create a calm-down corner together at home with cozy seating and sensory tools

These are skills we practice on Sundays. And these are tools your child can use every day. Read more about them on our resource page (link in bio). 🔗

Enjoy the long weekend with your family. We'll see you back here soon! 🌸

What's in YOUR cup? ☕

Not a label. A strength.

Swipe to see examples, then drop yours in the comments:
👉What's your superpower?
👉 What strength do you bring that others might not see at first glance?

The whole person is far more than their diagnosis. Let's celebrate what makes you YOU 💚

To the mothers who do it ALL—Happy Mother's Day. 💙

You're not just a mom. You're:
🔥 A researcher (Googling at 2am to understand your child's brain)
🔥 An advocate (fighting for what your child needs when no one else will)
🔥 A translator (helping the world understand how your child communicates)
🔥 A safe space (the person they fall apart with because you're home)
🔥 A warrior (showing up exhausted and doing it again tomorrow)

You carry the mental load. You manage the appointments, the IEPs, the meltdowns, the emails, the worry. You see what teachers miss. You celebrate wins no one else notices.

And you are AWESOME💖

To our My Outlet moms and every mom raising neurodivergent kids: This day is for YOU. You are extraordinary. Your child is lucky to have you. And you deserve all the recognition in the world.

Happy Mother's Day 🌸

Excited to share that we officially kicked off our summer co-op program this week🌟

On Monday, May 4th, My Outlet welcomed 8 co-op students! We were joined by Maya and Margaret, two of our Kids Signature Program facilitators, and Lauren Pelc, Social Services Worker and Child Advocate.

Students got introduced to My Outlet's mission and vision, and were thrown right into their first challenge — solving a timeline together. It didn't take long to see how naturally they could collaborate💙

They shared their ideas, plans, and just how excited they were when they received their co-op offer. That means everything to us.

We can't wait to introduce you to each of them and share what they'll be working on this summer. Looking forward to a productive season ahead.

Friendships 💙
Class 2 of the Kids Signature Program was special. We welcomed Paige Williams and Ashante Choe from Sheridan College's Illustration program—our summer co-op students!—who shared their creativity, expression, and lived experience as we explored what friendships really mean.

Each child earned their "Friendships" LEGO block this week, marking another skill in their growing toolkit.
