As nature prepares for the coming winter, the days become shorter and the temperatures gradually drop. The most notable characteristics of Fall are the changing colors of the leaves, as deciduous trees lose their leaves and create magnificent landscapes of red, orange, and yellow. The months of October and November provide opportunity for us to highlight the seasonal changes with our Floortime clients as well as the various activities/holidays that occur.
Some of the targeted skills we will be working on include:
- Responding to others
- Initiating Interactions
- Closing multiple circles of communication
- Reciprocating interactions
- Making a request
- Communication
- Reflecting on their feelings
- Giving opinions
Activities include:

- Fall deciduous tree decorating
- Pumpkin decorating
- Fall coloring pages
We wish everyone a wonderful Fall season!
