Love this quote and the mindset! If you're nervous what you might see at the table this Thanksgiving maybe just print this beautiful post from Up Beet Eaters out to remind you that it's all ok, let them play and explore - there is something to be grateful for there ☺️

Instead of seeing mealtime mess as misbehavior, pivot your attention to the skills you see growing with food:

"Ohhhh, you're feeling lots of squishiness!"

SKILLS GROWING:
- exploring a variety of textures
- communicating needs ("my hands are dirty"/"I need a napkin)
- any food on fingers is more likely to be tasted

"I like how you chewed out eyes and a mouth in your bread."

SKILLS GROWING:
-awareness of anatomical features
-tasting a new food (bread) that could open up many breakfast and lunch options down the road.
-independently approaching a new food with a positive attitude

YES - this all the way 💜

I've come to believe that independence is one of the most precious human rights, won not only on battlefields but also in classrooms and clinics and kitchen tables at the most unimaginable hours by the most unlikely of soldiers. For those whose address represents a different sort of home-of-the-brave, who, through the struggles, choose to never give up, today I also celebrate you. Happy Independence Day!

Hoping everyone is enjoying a great Independence Day weekend!

At Behavior Balance Point we strive for independence for all and celebrate their individuality 💜

What is ABA? Well, technically it is the application of the science of behavior analysis. It sounds boring but it's not! So many people use the tools of behavior analysis in so many ways.

In this picture, one of our friends was spending the majority of their two hour "ABA" session playing on the Lite-Brite because that is what they chose to do. During that time their therapist helped build many skills such as cooperation (turn taking, waiting, direction following), language (complex requests, conversation, prepositions), fine motor skills, and so much more!

Have a wiggly kiddo who could benefit from some tactile activity to just slow them down a bit? Something like this could help!

Having fun with my sewing creativity! Making maze bead fidgets for clients. These fidgets can be so calming and they also help to bring the big busy world back in front of a kiddo.
