Description:

Do you have children that bounce around your house? Do your children like big hugs or tight squeezes? Has your child refused to wear clothes with tags or socks with lines? In this session, we will discuss how sensory processing relates to attachment and regulation. We’ll also give different ideas on sensory activities that you can do to help your child regulate. This course is worth 2 credit hours.
