My Project

I am an occupational therapist who supports motor and sensory needs in school. My students learn best through play and I am looking to find new ways to help them meet their goals. My students have a variety of ability levels and the goal is always to meet them where they are at and help them access their general education classroom. With these items, including the Step & Balance Sensory Stones, the Six Pin Bowling Set, Sensory Fidget Stress Relief Toys, and other great learning activities, I hope to instill skills as well as build routines to help them achieve their goals. Each year my kids thrive with items like these so I am looking to start off strong.
