Rule 14: Play with ALL the kids.

On this particular “normal” day, I walked into a home visit with visions of one-on-one therapy in mind. Little did I know, nine visiting cousins eating fried chicken for lunch would turn it into a glorious, chaotic group experience.

Song Of The Month: All The Little Fish

I plan activities (loosely) ahead of time for Early Intervention sessions. An easy way for me to both 1) not get bored and 2) keep track of progress is to repeat one particular action song that we stick to for a month. This month it is the Little Fish Song, “All the Little Fish Are Swimming in the Water.”

Song Of The Month: Five Little Monkeys Jumping On The Bed

The song “Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed” by Eileen Christelow is a favorite due to its interactive nature. It encourages play and incorporates developmental skills like counting and pretending. Practical props like phones and doctor’s kit enhance the experience. The song offers a variety of playful activities for children and promotes interactive learning.
