Apple Pie Sensory Bin in Speech Therapy!

Apple week in speech therapy is always so much fun!  It's taken a different turn since I left the schools several years ago.  In the schools, we could compare the different types of apples, cook with them, eat different apple products like apple chips and cider.  Speech therapy in the homes is very different.  It's… Continue reading Apple Pie Sensory Bin in Speech Therapy!

Using Mrs. Wishy Washy in Speech Therapy

When I first started in speech therapy, I had no idea who Mrs. Wishy Washy was.  About 4 years into being an SLP assistant, I was working on expanding my farm theme.  I was stuck on ways to stretch the theme in my speech therapy sessions.  I needed lessons that would address my goals with… Continue reading Using Mrs. Wishy Washy in Speech Therapy

Artic Practice to Go!

As a traveling SLP, I spend ALOT of time in the car.  There's really nothing worse than getting to a client's house only to find out your therapy bag has spilled all over the back seat!  Hurriedly, you gather your stuff and pray that you picked it all up.  Then you get into the client's house, ready… Continue reading Artic Practice to Go!

Snacking in Speech Therapy: Camping Treat Bags

When I do a theme in speech therapy, I like to have matching stickers/ treats/prizes to go along with it. (I'm weird like that).   Sometimes, it's not always that easy. I will admit the camping theme was a little difficult. Lots of my kiddos have allergies or special diets so not everyone can have a… Continue reading Snacking in Speech Therapy: Camping Treat Bags
