EASY SENSORY BIN FOR HOME!

🍎This fun fall themed sensory bin can be made by using items found around your house. This activity can target fine motor, color sorting, attention, discussions about apples and their characteristics, turn taking, etc.

It’s time we rethink where we place our energy, research, and funding when it comes to Autism.
Autism is not something that needs to be “cured.” Autistic people are not broken or in need of fixing. What they need and deserve is support, acceptance, and a world that uplifts their voices.

Every dollar, every policy, every conversation should be focused on breaking down barriers, creating inclusive opportunities, and honoring the lived experiences of Autistic individuals, not finding a cure. When we listen to Autistic voices and create systems of REAL support, we aren’t just helping individuals we’re shaping a more compassionate, understanding, and inclusive community for everyone.

At Chatter & Chalk, this is our stance: we stand with the Autistic community and their families, we celebrate differences, and we are committed to supporting and uplifting Autistic voices every single day. 💙

✨Sensory breaks can be a game changer for kids! ✨

They help support self-regulation, focus, and calm bodies and minds. But we know it can be tricky to know where to start—so we’ve got you covered! Here are a few simple, fun sensory break ideas you can try at home or in the classroom:

🏀 Weighted Ball Roll – Use painter’s tape to make shapes or lines on the wall. Roll a weighted ball along the pattern to give proprioceptive (body awareness) input and build upper body strength.
🤝 Hand Pushes & Pulls – A quick, desk-friendly strategy! Kids can push their palms together or pull them apart for deep pressure input that helps reset and refocus.
🍕Pizza Roll – Fan favorite! Gently roll a therapy ball over your child’s back and legs (avoid head/neck) for calming, deep pressure input.
💪🏼 Wall Push-ups / Pushes – Encourage older kids to do wall push-ups, while younger ones can “make the room bigger” by pushing against the wall for input to the upper body.
🚶Masking Tape Sensory Walk – Use painter’s tape to create your own sensory pathway. This provides both vestibular (movement) and proprioceptive (body awareness) input.

Concerned your child may have additional sensory needs? Our occupational therapists are here to help! Call us at 304-413-1050 or email info@chatterandchalk.com to schedule an evaluation today!

We totally missed posting for Positive Thinking Day on Saturday… but honestly, how could we focus when the Backyard Brawl had us holding our breath, yelling at the TV, and then celebrating that WVU pulled out the WIN over Pitt?! 💙💛

So here’s our late “positive thought”: Life is always brighter after a Mountaineer victory! 🔥🏈✨

🌟 Collaboration in Action 🌟
One of the wonderful parts of pediatric therapy is the way different disciplines can work together to support children. Here at Chatter & Chalk, our occupational therapist (OT) and speech-language pathologists (SLPs) often co-treat—meaning they team up in the same session to target skills from both areas.

This approach can be especially helpful for children who are working on things like feeding, sensory regulation, attention, motor coordination, or communication. For example, while the occupational therapist may support posture, fine motor skills, and sensory needs, the speech-language pathologist can focus on language, swallowing, or social communication—all within the same activity or session.

By combining our expertise, we create engaging sessions that address the “whole child” and help build skills that carry over into everyday life at home, school, and play. 💬🖍️🍎

🤝 We love working together to make therapy fun, meaningful, and supportive for every child!
