🌞🏈🤗🍔 JULY HOLIDAYS (PT 2) 🌞🏈🤗🍔

For our teens groups these holidays -

We soaked up the sun at Speers Point Park with outdoor games and a BBQ we prepped and cooked together.

We also bounced our way through Revolution Park with trampolines, inflatables, and bubble soccer fun!

More than just a great time—these outings help build social inclusion, confidence, and connection in the community.

Thanks to everyone who joined in! See you next holidays 🤩

✨🏀🥞🍪 JULY HOLIDAY GROUPS (PT 1) ✨🏀🥞🍪

Our in-clinic holiday groups were full of laughter, creativity, and connection! From making pancakes and cookies to creating beautiful artworks and playing group games — every moment was designed to build functional skills, encourage social interaction, and create friendships with same-aged peers 💬👫

We’re all about inclusion, fun, and learning through play — and these holiday sessions were just that!

We hope our clients enjoyed them as much as we did 🫶

Is your child a picky eater? Here are our top tips for feeding therapy:
⭐️ Play with a combo of foods they like and dislike - such as making a funny face or forming their name using the foods
⭐️ Sensory food science - ask the child to describe the food by breaking it down into the senses (Sight, Touch, Sound, Smell)
⭐️ Encourage them to help prepare meals or snacks at home
⭐️ Have new foods in a bowl somewhere visible to increase exposure to them
⭐️ Eat around a table with each other so good food choices can be modelled to the child
