We all want it. The perfect holiday. We bake cookies, looking relaxed and refreshed. The children are licking be**ers, smiling and waiting patiently for the final result. Christmas carols are softly playing, everyone is getting their jammies on soon and you are getting under blankets for a movie. Sometimes...SOMEtimes that can happen. But probably:

1. The cookies are burned
2. Someone is arguing over said be**er
3. You over promised and you don't feel like baking anymore
4. You are yelling to get the jammies on said bodies
5. You are not actually watching a movie but fighting to stay awake under the blanket.
6. Your back probably hurts

This picture of this woman baking is nice but 1-6 is more likely happening. Want some help today? Our online course, Raising Future Adults is available at 50% off with the code "blackfriday" check out our LinkTree link in bio for the site! You can watch it as short videos or download the Teachable app to listen as mini podcasts. Do it for yourself! Chase that dream of cookies, movies, reasonable bedtimes and more than five minutes to yourself before you pass out. Our holiday gift to you! šŸŽ

You are allowed to do and remember the following to make the holidays merry and bright:

1. Maintain nap times and bedtimes
2. Going to sleep is NOT punishment it's regulating and calming to excited nervous systems
3. Being the parent that brings the energy DOWN instead of always up up up is perfectly wonderful! (And needed!) follow for more and watch for our holiday guide!

Addressing complex developmental needs requires more than a single perspective—it takes a collaborative team.

At Family Tree Therapies, our multidisciplinary approach brings together occupational, speech/feeding therapists who share insights and expertise. This teamwork creates a clear picture of your child's unique challenges and strengths.

Why does this matter? Because when specialists work together, therapy plans become more cohesive and effective. Each therapist contributes a piece of the puzzle, ensuring that no aspect of your child's development is overlooked.

Our holistic, research-based methods mean your child receives personalized care designed to promote lasting growth and well-being.

If you're navigating developmental concerns, remember: You don't have to do it alone. Together, we can build the support your child needs to thrive.

Creating a calm environment at home can be a game-changer for supporting your child's sensory needs.

Simple changes like soft lighting, reduced noise, and cozy spaces help your child feel safe and focused. These small adjustments can ease overwhelm and promote better engagement throughout the day. Check out our resources here:

What's one change you can make today to bring calm into your home?

We like battery operated candles on timers...when the candle comes on, it's time for relaxation, screen reduction and quiet time!

Using PROMPT in speech therapy offers a powerful way to support children with speech challenges.

PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets) is a hands-on approach that helps kids develop clearer speech by guiding their mouth movements. This method combines touch, movement, and sound cues tailored to each child's needs.

Here's why PROMPT matters:
- It targets the root of speech problems by focusing on muscle movements.
- It's personalized to support each child's unique communication style.
- It's engaging and interactive, making therapy feel like play.

At Family Tree Therapies, we use PROMPT alongside research-based techniques to create effective, playful sessions that empower your child's growth.

Curious if PROMPT could help your child find their voice? Reach out to learn more about how we tailor therapy for lasting progress.
