Hi all,
Hope everyone is getting on well. What a busy few weeks it has been. Myself and nuala are running 2 groups, the thing that we find almost most challenging is managing behaviour esecially with the older group which are 12 year old boys so if anyone has any tips on that it would be great?
I also did my first 1:1 session with a child this week which was great, he has huge sensory processing difficulties which i have started working on. Presented the platform swing as a magic carpet to him and this was useful. I found it hard to keep coming up with imaginative ideas to keep him engaged, maybe watching afew episodes of barney would help :)

heres a really good website for anyone in paeds or even mental health, has loads of ideas for art and crafts. http://www.enchantedlearning.com/Home.html. Has anyone any ideas for some games (Gross motor) for kids or even know a useful website? That'd be really useful for planning groups.

Talk soon :)
