ReplyDeleteLove your ideas! I am a daycare teacher of one year olds and love all the suggestions!! They LOVE sensory!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list of ideas for sensory boxes. I really like how simple yours are with just a few added items. That's how I like to do them for my buddies, too. I think it encourages them to explore the sensory material more. I'm pinning this to my Teach and Learn board!
ReplyDeleteHello! My name is Miriam and I am a speech-language pathologist in Dubuque, IA (http://www.unifiedtherapy.com/). I am a SOS-trained feeding therapist (http://www.sosapproach-conferences.com/) and have been asked to present on feeding interventions for local parents, community members, etc. I googled some pictures of "messy play" to try and include hypothetical “cases” in my presentation (i.e., pictures and stories representing the kinds of kids that may benefit from feeding intervention). I was wondering if you would mind me using some of the images from your site. I would include your site address on the powerpoint as a reference. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to your response! ~ Miriam Lind, MA, CCC/SLP miriam@unifiedtherapy.com
