Tips for a Sensory-Friendly Halloween Costume

👻 Start Early:
Whatever costume you choose, make sure you get it with enough time for your child to practice wearing it. This helps them get comfortable before the big night! You can also talk to your BCBA about practicing with parts of the costume during therapy sessions.

👻 Keep It Comfortable:
Costumes that can be worn over regular clothes are often the best option, as they feel familiar and comfortable against your child’s skin. Comfort is key!

👻 Wash Ahead of Time:
If possible, wash the costume before your child wears it. This makes it softer and gives it a familiar scent, which can help with sensory comfort.

👻 Hats & Hoods:
Some kids aren’t big fans of hats or hoods, which can be tricky if they’re part of the costume. If these items are essential, practice wearing them in advance, and your BCBA can help if needed.

👻 Have Fun & Be Flexible:
We all love getting cute costume pics, but the goal is for your child to have fun without feeling stressed. Whether they only wear a hat and gloves or are up for the full costume, embrace what works for them! What matters most is that everyone enjoys the festivities together.

We’re celebrating Hannah Fincher’s 2 Year Anniversary at TBP! 🎉

Hannah shared, "I’m most excited to try the pumpkin cold brew because fall is my favorite season and I love everything pumpkin 🎃"

She also said, "The most rewarding part of the job is seeing the little victories the kids make everyday!" and "The most memorable moment in the past year was moving to Lawrence so I can be closer to my dad and continue my education!"

Whitney shared, "I'm so impressed with her creativity and ability to pair with all of her clients, no matter how different they or their interests are. My favorite memory of Hannah is watching her pair with a new-to-her client, (who has a history of being tricky to pair with), and being his favorite person by the time their session was over! Hannah brings so much positivity to the team and is so valuable to the DT TBP team! 🤩🤍"

We are so thankful to have Hannah as part of our team and for the incredible care she provides to her kiddos. Congratulations Hannah!

We all know Halloween can be a bit unpredictable, so coming prepared is key! 🍬

Here are a few tips to help make the night smooth and enjoyable:
✨ Glow sticks or flashlights for visibility
✨ Reflective stickers on costumes
✨ Noise-canceling headphones for extra comfort
✨ Strollers or wagons for when little legs get tired
✨ And don’t forget any other supports based on your child’s unique needs!

Not sure how to address a specific challenge? Your child’s BCBA can provide helpful suggestions! 🌟👻

Let’s make this Halloween one to remember! 🧡

🎉 Big congratulations to Angel Seals on her promotion to Tier 1! 🎉

Angel is one of our amazing techs who brings joy and energy to every session. She’s so great with the kids and lights up when they reach new milestones!

Her pod BCBA, Sophia Ruby, shared these kind words:
"Angel does so great at celebrating all of her kiddos wins! She shows up everyday ready to learn. I have seen so much growth in her since she started and I am so excited to watch her continue and grow here."

We’re so proud of you, Angel, and can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do here at TBP! 💜

👻 Trick-or-treat practice makes progress!

For many of our kiddos, Halloween night can bring lots of new sights, sounds, and routines. 🏡

A simple way to help is by planning a little practice round! Visit a neighbor, a friend, or even walk through your own home in costume. This gives your child a chance to get comfortable, build confidence, and know what to expect before the big night. 🍬

With a little preparation, Halloween can feel more fun and less overwhelming for everyone. ✨

✨ Celebrating Iyonna ✨
Her birthday is this Sunday, but we couldn’t wait to start the fun a little early.

Iyonna is a Tier 2 RBT who has been part of our team for 10 months (anniversary celebration coming soon 😉). For her special day, she was surprised with a birthday card signed by her coworkers and her favorite treats: Sprite and Almond Joys.

She’s marking the occasion with a Mexican OT concert, a birthday dinner, and cheering on her mom at her fashion show. What a weekend of celebrations!

Iyonna is excited for a year filled with travel and adventures ahead.
Happy Birthday, Iyonna! ✌️4️⃣ for 24

Happy Birthday to Sheridan! 🥳

Our amazing Operations Manager has been part of the TBP team for about a year and a half, and we celebrated her special day with some of her favorite treats: Cheddar Jalapeño Cheetos, Cherry Coke, and a sweet card signed by her coworkers. 💌

She kept the celebration cozy at home with her husband and son (hopefully with even more treats involved!). Sheridan is also looking forward to her next adventure, visiting her sister in Austin to celebrate her birthday too! 🎂✨

We are so lucky to have Sheridan on our team. Help us wish her the happiest of birthdays! 💖

We celebrated Macy Stweart’s 1 year anniversary!! 🥳 She was so excited to receive her gifts, especially her brand-new TBP cup… her new go-to water bottle! 💙

When asked what she finds most rewarding in her role, Macy shared:
⭐ “The most rewarding part of the job is seeing our kiddos grow more independent each and every day! They never fail to put a smile on my face no matter the way I’m feeling!”

Her favorite memory so far has been watching her first few kiddos graduate:
🎓 “Seeing them go out into the world ready to show them how amazing they are will always be my favorite thing.”

And from her supervisor, Whitney Alcorn:
🌟 “Oh gosh, how do I sum up everything Macy brings to the team in 1 paragraph?! Macy makes every effort to show up for her clients everyday, gives her all in every session, and is endlessly kind and patient with her kiddos. Macy is a client and staff favorite, as she never hesitates to help someone clean up a mess, message for support, or offer helpful advice when needed. Macy brings a calmness and creativity to her sessions that are unmatched and her clients know that she is a safe space for them to feel all of their feelings. Macy is SO VALUABLE to DT TBP & Pod Whitney, and I am so grateful to get to watch her grow clinically 🤩”

Happy 1 year, Macy! We are so thankful for the joy, dedication, and kindness you bring to TBP every day. 💖
