I get really excited about finding good deals and new ways to use things I already have! When we moved into our new office space we had to get a little creative because there isn’t a whole ton of room! This is especially true in our therapy room. We needed to have somewhere to put all of our instruments and props, but still leave enough room to conduct a therapy session. We purchased two large metal cabinets to run along the back wall of the room and house all of our equipment. They have worked splendidly! When we were putting everything away, I noticed that we had a bunch of little magnets and a light bulb instantly went on! Magnets & Metal Cabinets! OF COURSE! Perfect way to do picture scheduling, highlight important things, and give clients another way to manipulate materials! Perfect! A couple of my clients love helping me put up the picture cards and pointing out where we are in our schedule. This large amount of metal space allows us to get creative and be flexible!

NEW SONG: Bouncing and Swaying
This song can be used in both individual and group settings. In a group, children sit on parents laps while parents bounce or sway with the music. This can also be done with parents standing and holding children’ In an individual setting or with older children, children learn the difference between fast and slow and demonstrate movements with their own bodies by bouncing up and down or swaying side to side. this is a super simple song that is quick to learn and easy to sing. ENJOY!! Bouncing and Swaying by On A Good Note Read More
