You’ll learn: How to use sensory bins to boost attention and motivation Simple tricks like bubble storms and sandwich squishes to keep kids engaged Ways to build in movement (crab crawls, big Spider-Man jumps) for sensory feedback Why embedding sensory input makes sessions run smoother and kids learn faster These are strategies I personally use in my therapy room and build into every activity in the SIS Membership. 💡 The best part?
