🌿 This Week at Nature’s Edge!🐴

Our patients spent lots of quality time with our incredible variety of therapy animals, from chickens, cats, dogs, pigs, sheep, horses, and more!

Animals play an important role in promoting speech therapy goals by encouraging communication, building confidence, increasing engagement, and creating natural opportunities for language development. 💚

✨ A Big Moment During Speech Therapy!🐴

In this newly shared ReelTime Animal Rescue, LLC video, one of our patients leads a horse for the very first time during their speech therapy session!

While guiding the horse, the patient practiced giving clear verbal commands like stop and go, supporting speech clarity, confidence, and purposeful communication. 🐎

Moments like these naturally strengthen the human–animal bond while making therapy fun, meaningful, and empowering. 🌿❤️

🎉 Speech Therapy Graduation Day at Nature’s Edge! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating Darren, who has officially graduated from speech therapy after meeting all of his goals and truly excelling along the way! We are so incredibly proud of the hard work, growth, and confidence he’s shown.

For his final session, Darren chose to make no-bake cookies! 🍪 The perfect way to end his therapy journey with smiles, fun, and a sweet treat. While we’re sad to see him go, we’re cheering him on as he takes his next big steps forward.

Way to go, Darren, we’ll be rooting for you always! 💙✨

🐴 Therapy doesn’t always happen in a room. Sometimes it happens on the trail.🌿

In today’s newly released ReelTime Animal Rescue, LLC video, one of our patients takes our therapy horse, Pride, for a peaceful nature walk while practicing targeted speech sounds during their session.

By combining movement, the outdoors, and equine-assisted therapy, speech skills become meaningful, motivating, and easier to carry over into everyday life. These natural moments build confidence, engagement, and communication in a way that feels fun, not forced.
