I personally believe all primary school children should be granted 2 weeks of holiday, during term time, so they can create memories with their family, without having to pay triple the price for a holiday! And this is even more important for certain children, who would otherwise find travelling far too overwhelming, during peak periods.

We believe SEN children are already excluded from society and education. Many children with disabilities or SEN can find it hard to deal with crowds, noise and the general hustle and bustle of travelling in peak times. Yet, these families are penalised for removing children from school for holidays.

Try this ‘Cycling’ exercise with your child at home, to help work on this primitive reflex.

Have you heard of APD (Auditory Processing Disorder)?

Does your child struggle to process what they have heard?
Do they find concentrating and focusing a challenge?
Are they sensitive to sounds?
Have you had their hearing checked due to being concerned they can't hear properly, but the results came back normal?

If you are saying YES to the above, let's chat, as your child might be struggling to process sounds properly 😊

Did you know that if a baby skips crawling or doesn’t crawl for long enough, it can impact their ability to sit up straight, hold a pencil correctly, and/or increase their hyperactivity and fidgeting?
