Finding fun ways to learn how to control airflow and sound placement! Did you know some sounds are nasal sounds? /m/ (as in “mom”), /n/ (as in “no”), /ŋ/ (as in “sing”) are all sounds made with airflow through the nasal passageways!

Kids on a candy high? Try a fall themed sensory bin for some calm play! Start with a base filler, such as:
Dried corn kernels, uncooked rice, dried beans, Kinetic sand or shredded paper. Next, add in items like mini pumpkins or gourds, acorns (real or craft), fake leaves (silk or paper), small animal or fall-themed toys (squirrels, leaves, tractors, apples, etc.) Lastly, don’t forget to add in tools like measuring cups, scoops, tongs, spoons, and little bowls for sorting!

We love pairing books with toys to increase learning through play! Taking the auditory journey of books and turning it into a hands-on activity is so much fun! This has been a favorite for all our little boys this fall! 💙

It’s pumpkin season! Did you know carving pumpkins is an activity rich in sensory input and language development?

Sensory Opportunities include kids digging into pumpkins with their hands, experiencing the slimy, stringy texture of the seeds and pulp as tactile input. Bright orange pumpkins and a variety of tools and bowls stimulate visual interest.The earthy, fresh smell of pumpkin is an olfactory (smell) sensory input all while hearing the squish of the pumpkin pulp adds to auditory sensory learning.

Language Development Opportunities? Let us tell you!
This activity naturally includes descriptive language such as “slimy,” “wet,” “cold,” “sticky,” “orange,” “round,” etc. Children can also work on following verbal instructions or sequencing such as “First we cut the top, then we scoop the seeds”. Turn-taking, asking for tools, or helping each other out also encourages conversation and cooperation which helps to boost the social use of language!

Side Sitting for Stronger Play
At Kid Connections, we love celebrating little moments that make a big difference in development.

On the left, notice how slouching in “long sitting” can make it harder for kids to keep their core active and stay upright. On the right, side sitting encourages:
• Core and trunk strength
• Hip mobility
• A better position for reaching, playing, and exploring

These small posture shifts build the foundation for gross motor milestones, play skills, and confidence!

🌟 Big News at Kid Connections 🌟

We are so excited to announce that Kid Connections now offers Physical Therapy—and we’re starting strong with our very first PT, Tessa Crosby!

Tessa brings incredible passion and skill to our team:

She specializes in helping children reach gross motor milestones and build confidence in their movement.

She makes therapy fun and engaging with creative obstacle courses, toys, and activities that motivate kids to succeed.

She’s trained in the latest pediatric modalities, focusing on neuromuscular activation and gait training to give each child the best support possible.

And the best news? There’s no wait for evaluations right now! Families can get started with Tessa right away.

We are thrilled to expand our services and continue supporting kids in every area of development. Please help us spread the word and share with families who may benefit!

Welcome, Tessa—we’re so glad you’re here!

Four new friends started with Connecting Hearts on the farm today!
They needed something new, something different, something fresh, something challenging. Their parents decided to give it a try — and just look at those smiles.

Here’s what they worked on through real-life farm fun:
• Feeding and caring for animals → builds responsibility, sequencing, and daily living skills.
• Petting the sheep → supports fine motor control, sensory regulation, and motor planning.
• Cleaning out water troughs → develops upper body strength, endurance, and task persistence.
• Outdoor play and farm chores → promote problem-solving, teamwork, and following directions.

We have just 3 slots left this season. Once they’re filled, that’s it. If you’ve been looking for something meaningful, engaging, and therapeutic, this is the place.
