When sensory needs are unmet, it’s not “bad behavior.” ⚡🧠

What looks like inattention, defiance, or emotional outbursts is often a child’s way of saying their sensory system is overloaded. Understanding this can change how we respond—from punishment to support.

💡 Practical tips:

Provide quiet or low-stimulation spaces

Offer fidget tools or sensory breaks

Use visual schedules to reduce surprises

Observe triggers and adapt the environment

Meeting sensory needs first helps children focus, regulate, and thrive—because behavior is communication, not rebellion.

Every moment we spend listening, learning, and lifting up children is an investment in the kind of world we say we want. Not a world that rushes them to fit in — but one that reshapes itself to include them, especially those with disabilities or neurodivergence.

Whether you're a parent holding space for meltdowns, a teacher building IEPs late into the night, or a therapist supporting a non-verbal learner through play, remember — this is the work. These moments plant seeds of confidence, connection, and hope that grow into self-assured adults who know they matter.

✨ Practical tools to center children in your daily work:

Schedule time to bond, not just teach

Use child-led play to guide therapy or instruction

Create predictable routines that inspire safety

Give choices, even in small tasks

Celebrate every win — loudly, joyfully

🌟 Every Child Brings Two Bags to School 🌟

One bag is full of books, pencils, and assignments. The other? Full of feelings, worries, and emotions that we often can’t see. 💛

As educators, parents, and advocates, our job isn’t just to teach math or reading—it’s to notice what’s in that invisible bag. Some days it’s anxiety, some days joy, sometimes frustration… and sometimes it’s all at once.

An Individualized Education Plan (IEP) isn’t just about academics—it’s about supporting the whole child, including that emotional load. Every IEP should consider:
✅ Emotional wellbeing
✅ Social support
✅ Strategies for self-regulation
✅ Tools to help children thrive, not just survive

Let’s make schools spaces where every child’s two bags are handled with care. ❤️

Imagine if every classroom, therapy session, or home made room for children to lead the conversation, choose activities based on interest, and communicate in ways that feel natural to them. For neurodivergent children, especially, this shift can be transformative. Instead of forcing eye contact, we might use tools like visual schedules, sensory corners, or AAC devices to help them feel understood and included.

✨ Practical tools for seeing what they see:

Pause and observe before you instruct

Ask open-ended questions

Use play as a gateway to communication

Incorporate visuals or sensory aids for expression

Validate feelings—even if they’re expressed non-verbally

Understanding comes from empathy, not assumptions. When we meet children where they are, we’re not just teaching — we’re building a world where they belong.

The most effective foundation for supporting children with autism isn’t found in a manual — it begins with love.

Love that’s patient. Love that listens. Love that doesn’t try to change who a child is, but instead embraces their unique way of experiencing the world. Yes, therapies like speech, occupational, and behavioral interventions play vital roles. But their impact is magnified when paired with an environment that’s rich in understanding, safety, and unconditional acceptance.

Autism is not a problem to be solved — it’s a difference to be respected. Real support is about meeting children where they are, celebrating their strengths, and advocating fiercely for systems that honor their dignity. That’s the therapy every child deserves.

Let’s let love lead, and let every practice follow.

⏰ Recess is NOT a Reward. It’s a Regulation Tool. ⏰

When we take away recess as a punishment, we’re removing the very tool children need to manage emotions, focus, and self-regulate.

✅ Running, jumping, and playing isn’t just fun—it’s brain and body work.
✅ Outdoor movement helps children process emotions and reset.
✅ Recess is essential, not optional.

Insist on recess. Protect it. Kids don’t just want it—they need it to thrive. 🌱

Teaching is listening to what is not said — and responding with care. 💛📚

The best educators don’t just teach content. They feel the room, notice the silent struggles, and respond with compassion. That’s where real learning begins.

At Ability Therapy Place, we’re building classrooms that listen deeply and teach inclusively through our Inclusive Education Programs. Ensure you register for the webinar scheduled for next Tuesday 25th November and upgrade your grasp of handling learners of all kinds.

Ability Therapy Place has the honour of working with the brilliant leaders from the ADAPT Initiative (People Together) — an organization with over 50 years of groundbreaking work in inclusive education, therapy, and disability support.

ADAPT, founded in 1972 by Mithu Alur after her personal journey raising a daughter with cerebral palsy, has become India’s leading force in transforming the lives of people with neuro-muscular and developmental disabilities. Their model includes uniting special education, therapy, family support, teacher training, and vocational skills. This has changed communities across 16 states and established the National Resource Centre for Inclusion.

And now… it’s here in Africa at Ability Therapy Place. 🌍🔥

This partnership allows us to adapt ADAPT’s evidence-based, time-tested approaches to Kenya, building stronger systems for inclusive education that actually work on the ground. We’re also thrilled that members of Ability Therapy Place went to India for the Community Initiatives in Inclusion Training, gaining world-class expertise to strengthen inclusion here at home.

This is the beginning of a powerful journey — and we can’t wait for what’s ahead.
Inclusion isn’t a trend. It’s a movement. And we’re building it together. 💪

Every child and adult on the autism spectrum deserves to be seen, understood, and included. Autism isn’t a flaw—it’s a different way of experiencing the world. What they need from us is patience, acceptance, and spaces that celebrate their unique strengths.

Let’s stand together for inclusion, understanding, and respect.

We often think we can define disability simply until we meet someone whose strength, joy, and determination redefine everything we thought we knew. Disability isn’t a tragedy or a limitation. It’s part of the diverse human experience and one that calls for understanding, access, and inclusion, not sympathy.

That is why the continuous efforts of organizations committed to disability like the National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPWD), Disabled Empowerment Society of Kenya- DIESK, Scottish Disability Sport, Rose Disability Care Services, ACD - Advocating for children with disability, Parenting Kids With Disabilities, Adults WITH Disabilities, UN Human Rights Council, World Federation of Occupational Therapists (WFOT), 4 Kids Therapy and many other advocacy and support institutions continue to chart a path towards inclusion and acceptance.
