I love creating sensory bins for therapy activities, but it wasn’t until recently that I started thinking about what I was using to put in them as a filler. Have you ever considered that it might not be the best idea to use food as a sensory bin filler? I’m not judging anyone, I’ve done […]
Organizing Materials for the Year!
This post includes Amazon Affiliate LinksOrganizing! It’s not really my strong suite…you know all those Type A SLPs that have everything in order? Yeah, I’m not one of those.
