Helping Children Reach Their Full pOTential
It’s that time again for my monthly newsletter. October is filled with so many wonderful activities from all things pumpkins to Halloween. It was hard for me to narrow down the activities to include in my newsletter because there were so many to choose from.
Check out my favorite activities for October!
I love a good theme because first, themes make it easy to plan treatment activities and second, they are a fun way to engage kids. I especially love themes that allow the use of manipulatives for fine motor and sensory activities. I typically use a theme for an entire month to make planning easier. April is all about flowers, bugs, or gardens. September is perfect for apples. October is of course going to be about Halloween.

Back when COVID-19 and quarantine first started, I needed a creative way to help caregivers with carryover at home, especially since there would be a lapse in service time. When our facility transitioned to teletherapy, I was worried that a lot of my families would be overwhelmed with all of the changes and would not know where to begin. I wanted to provide them with a tool that would allow them to complete simple activities throughout the week with their child to keep things as normal and as fun as possible. That is how my newsletter was created.
