Happy National Opposite Day

It’s cold outside… so let’s move BACKWARDS inside!

Opposite Day is a perfect time to work on motor planning, body awareness, and flexible thinking, all while being silly.

Try these “Opposite Day” activities:

Obstacle Course… BACKWARDS
• Crawl through a tunnel backwards
• Step over pillows in reverse
• Walk heel-to-toe going backward
• Push a laundry basket back to start

Flexible Thinking Fun
• Do steps in the wrong order (finish → start)
• Pretend snow is hot lava
• Say the opposite action first (“jump” = squat)
• Change the rules halfway through the game

Motor Planning Boosters
• Mirror a partner’s movements backwards
• Copy a movement after watching it once
• Freeze → move → freeze again

Opposite Day reminds kids that it’s okay when plans change — and learning to adapt is a BIG skill

So today… don’t go forward.
Go BACKWARDS

How fun!

When the temperature drops below freezing, it’s the perfect time to try frozen bubbles ❄️🫧
All you need to do is mix the ingredients in a small bowl, dip a straw into the solution, and gently blow a bubble outside onto a cold surface – snow works perfectly.
The secret is to make smaller bubbles and not let them fall from high up. Instead, gently blow the bubble right onto the surface, almost touching it.
For us, it worked around the third try, so don’t give up!
Within about 20 seconds, the bubble started to freeze and beautiful frost patterns appeared. Watching it slowly freeze is pure magic ✨
Such a fun winter activity to try on a cold day!

❄️ Ice Storm Survival: Keeping Kids Busy Indoors ❄️

Stuck inside with icy roads? We’ve got you covered—whether the power stays on or goes out!

✨ If the power is ON:
• Build a blanket fort + flashlight “reading cave”
• Obstacle course with couch cushions, pillows, and painter’s tape on the floor
• Dance party or freeze dance (bonus energy burn!)
• Board games, puzzles, or a family movie with popcorn
• Crafts: coloring, Play-Doh, stickers, or DIY slime

🕯️ If the power goes OUT:
• Flashlight scavenger hunt around the house
• Tell stories by lantern or candlelight (grown-up supervised!)
• Card games, charades, or “I Spy”
• Build a fort and pretend you’re camping indoors
• Sing songs, read books, or do calming stretches/yoga

No matter what—keep it simple, stay warm, and remember: kids don’t need perfect days… just safe ones and a little fun.

Stay cozy and stay safe! ❄️🧤

Honoring Martin Luther King Jr. Day 🤍

Today we pause to remember the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the powerful message he shared with the world — kindness, equality, courage, and love for one another.

Looking for meaningful ways to talk about today with your kids? Here are a few simple, age-appropriate activities your family can do together:

✨ Read Together
Choose a child-friendly book about Dr. King and talk about what it means to be kind and fair.

🎨 Create a Kindness Craft
Have your child draw a picture or write a note showing how they can help or care for others.

💬 Talk About Big Feelings
Ask questions like:
• “What does being kind look like?”
• “How can we help someone who feels left out?”

🤝 Practice Kindness Today
Hold the door, share a toy, say thank you, or help a friend — small acts make a big impact.

🕊️ Remember the Message
Dr. King believed everyone deserves respect, love, and opportunity. These conversations help plant seeds that grow for a lifetime.

Today, and every day, let’s raise kind, compassionate, and courageous kids 💙

01/17/2026

Prosper Therapy Services will be operating normal business hours on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, January 19, from 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM.

We look forward to seeing our families and continuing to support our children on this day of service and reflection. 💙

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
