Celebrating New Years Eve 

12/29/2015

1 Comment

 
As 2015 closes and the overload of the holiday season comes to an end, how about a nice calming activity for New Years Eve?

Fireworks and crowds may be too much for some of us to handle. Using our First Then Visual Schedule HD app (also on android), you can make a sensory hour count down. Make each step with a time (analog or digital), make activity schedules for things to find in your sensory bin, even set a 60 minute timer for each activity. 

Whether it be a bean table or Kinetic sand. Choose small items for your New Years celebrator to find.  You can make each hour more challenging or keep it simple. Not only are they having fun, but are hopefully calmer, focused, and even learning math and time.

Happy New Year 2016! ~ from all of us at Good Karma Applications!

Make a yearly tradition and let your children help with sending holiday cards. You can simplify the steps with our Scene Speak app by making a social story. Gather the supplies you will need: Envelopes, cards, return labels, address labels, postage stamps. Make a sample to show what the cards should look like when ready to mail. Not only will you create a tradition but you will work on many skills. Fine motor, independence, math, life skills even an outing to the post office.

Place labels and stamps on a heightened tray or bucket or even the table making them easier to grab.

Talk about the history of the stamp and how stamps cost money to send letter all over the world. Be sure and show where the stamp goes on the envelope with a sample card.

Set up your work station in order and be sure to have a "done" box.

Make the envelopes easier for stuffing by opening the flaps or make a bit challenging and have you helper open and then stuff. great for fine motor.
