🔹 Before outings, review rules through visuals or role-play
🔹 Label safe vs. unsafe zones at home
🔹 Practice recall (“Come here!”) as a fun game
Preparation = prevention ✨
Safe kids = stress-free celebrations!
🎯 Skill Targeted: Safety awareness & adaptive behavior
💡 ABA Tip: Reinforce compliance and safety-following with immediate positive feedback, “You held my hand the whole time, great job staying safe!”

Create a Gratitude Tree where each leaf shows something your child is thankful for, a friend, toy, food, or skill!
Every time they spontaneously express gratitude, add a new leaf!
This visual reinforcement system helps kids see their kindness grow over time.
🎯 Skill Targeted: Language expansion & self-awareness
💡 ABA Tip: Reinforce natural expressions of gratitude, not just prompted ones, to encourage generalization and intrinsic motivation.

Make reinforcement festive!
Turn favorite activities into Thanksgiving-themed motivators:

🌾 Sensory bins for calming exploration
🏃 “Turkey tag” for movement-seeking kiddos
When reinforcers are fun and functional, learning feels like play.
🎯 Skill Targeted: Reinforcement pairing & sensory engagement
💡 ABA Tip: Rotate reinforcers often and give choice , autonomy increases motivation and reduces escape behaviors.

Crafting isn’t just creative, it’s skill-building disguised as fun!
🧩 Sorting fall-colored beads = categorization & visual discrimination
🖍️ Sequencing “build a turkey” steps = executive function
💬 “I’m thankful for…” feathers = emotional labeling & perspective-taking
Try it at home or in sessions to work on fine-motor, communication, and social-emotional skills all at once!
🎯 Skill Targeted: Sequencing, labeling, fine-motor & perspective-taking
💡 ABA Tip: Reinforce participation and communication during the craft, not just completion ,“I love how you said what you’re thankful for!”

In therapy and in life, gratitude helps us focus on progress, not perfection.
When children learn to notice what’s going well, “I waited my turn!” or “I tried something new!”, it strengthens their growth mindset and supports skill generalization beyond therapy sessions.
💡 Celebrate small wins. They add up to big change.
🎯 ABA Tip: Praise effort and persistence, not just outcomes, to promote resilience and intrinsic motivation.
