It is essential for professionals to come together and share practical information on therapeutic interventions to support children at home and school. Parents, professionals, and family members are key to supporting children and advancing their development.

Sensory breaks can be incorporated during fun play time during the summer. Encourage tactile, proprioception, and vestibular input while the child is having fun on the playground.

Systematic and sequential approaches to tasks in small achievable steps that include tactile and visual stimulation will support learning and retention of information!!

A special thank you is extended to the Parents of Special Needs Children’s Ministry at Fellowship Bible Baptist Church in Warner Robins, Georgia. It was a spectacular resource fair for parents and community leaders to share information to help families. Discovery Therapy participated as a vendor and shared information on ways to improve therapeutic skills at home and school. #Autism #Specialneedsparents

Autism treatment includes being committed to stimulating brain centers daily. Set up your home in a way that every area has pictures, words, and structure to support processing of simplified information.
