🤚 Where my movement seekers at? ✋

We are all built uniquely and some kids (and adults) THRIVE on intense sensory rich movement to support their regulation to prepare their body for the day.

Peep this amazing (and super challenging) course Jackie OT created for her sensory seeking kiddos of the day!

Can we also add this supports children working on coordination, strenght, and motor planning too!
