68. Four Helpful Tools To Develop Independence For ND Kids

Our goal as parents is to give our kids the skills they'll need to live as independently as possible. In this episode we share four fabulous tools that help do just that. We chat about: Smart Watches and air tags Disability Introduction Cards Mydoh (this episode's awesome sponsor!)  PFOs aka "Planted Friendly Observers" These tools make up part of our ever growing Life Skills Toolkit. We think each of them is a winner winner chicken dinner! Mmmmm chicken... (this random reference will make sense when you listed to the chicken restaurant story. I'm still laughing. And licking my greasy fingers).  Be sure to visit the Mydoh website to learn more and to start a FREE trial.
