🎃✨ In addition to all the spooky fun we have planned this week… we’ve got a very special celebrity guest helping us out! 👀

That’s right — Taylor Swift herself (aka Kaylor Swift, our amazing Client Services Manager 😉) will be passing out goodie bags to our patients! 🩷🎤

Huge thank you to Wicked Good Candy for sweetening the fun with even more goodie bags for our little ghosts and ghouls! 🍬👻

🌾 Community Food Shelf Update 🌟

I spent my Sunday stocking our PPT Food Shelf, and it truly warms my heart to create something like this for our community. This will be running for the remainder of the year, so donations are graciously needed/accepted! ❤️

📊 Did you know?
According to recent data, over 19% of Franklin County residents experience food insecurity, with many families struggling to keep nutritious meals on the table — and 1 in 5 children are impacted. With SNAP benefits not being issued starting November 1st, 2025, this need is expected to grow.

No child in our community should go hungry. Together, we can make sure they don’t. 💕

🌟 This is a “Take What You Need, Leave What You Can” space — open to any families or community members who could use a little extra support right now.

🌟 We gladly accept donations of non-perishable, non-expired food items to help keep our shelves full and our community fed. Every can, box, and jar makes a difference. 🥫💚

📍 Stop by Pride Pediatric Therapy to donate or take what you need — no questions asked.

Our goal is simple — to help one another. Whether you’re able to donate or could use a little extra support right now, you’re welcome to “take what you need, leave what you can.”

📦 Donation Guidelines:

🔹 No homemade or opened foods, please, to ensure safety for everyone.

💡 Program Practices:
🔹 Our food shelf will be checked regularly to make sure all items are safe and up to date.
🔹 Anyone is welcome to participate — no questions asked, no requirements.

🕷️🕸️👻

Just in time for trick-or-treating or Halloween festivities! 🕷 Grab your copy of this spider theme mindfulness exercise: https://www.theottoolbox.com/spider-mindfulness-exercise/

🕸There are many benefits of mindfulness strategies, and mindfulness tools like this one can be very helpful for children, especially during the unpredictable nature of a Fall party or during trick-or-treating.

🕸From addressing mood, regulation, and cognitive functioning, this Halloween activity can be a big help in classrooms or learning at home during the week leading up to Halloween.

🕸Other children may benefit from the mindfulness strategy as a coping tool or to address stress or worries this time of year.

🕸Still others can practice listening skills and auditory awareness as they complete the deep breathing exercise and focus on the lines of the spider web.
