Today we had fun wearing New Year's Eve glasses during therapy... the kiddos just loved them. We walked down the hall with them and they wished everyone they met "Happy New Year"! It was a blast and a great way for them to practice greeting others. They all used great eye contact too, as they wanted to make sure that everyone noticed their "NEW GLASSES". Who would have guessed they would be so useful. HMMM maybe there should be glasses for every holiday :)
Here is a pic of my son and I wearing the glasses on New Year's Eve

Since we have been on vacation for two weeks I wanted to do something simple to help everyone get back into the groove of school. So I found a freebie online of a New Year's party hat with some blank dots. Here is the link for the New Year's party hat.
We practiced following some simple directions:
"color one dot blue and one dot red" or "color two dots yellow"
They also had to make choices of color crayons.
It was an easy way to get back into the routine of school and practice following directions, pragmatics and some fine motor. Plus they really had a lot of fun wearing the sparkly glasses!
Happy New Year!
