Alvin is a pediatric occupational therapist working in a variety of settings including outdoor kids OT. His tips for getting outside is to start small, which may be a walk around the block, then add little bits on each time. This episode will help you want to get outside, it did for me anyway.

Lindsey’s website includes a downloadable link to her reading guide and activity book, virtual read along and how to order your copy. www.wigglesstompsandsqueezes.com

The reading guide is 20 pages full of great activities and information. It gives a breakdown of the 8 senses, and questions to ponder throughout the book. I love the self reflection part of this activity guide and the Sensory Play Planner.

Interoception is what makes you feel hungry, thirsty, hot, cold, itchy, excited, happy, mad and irritable. It is our awareness of the inside of your body including heart rate, breathing, hunger, thirst, and fatigue.

Here’s what I learned so far about laughter:

15 minutes of belly laughing is better than 15 minutes of abs!

Belly laughing has same benefits as running.

Belly laughing real or fake doesn’t matter, it releases endorphins and helps combat stress.

When you engage in laughter (real or fake) the body starts to feel the emotion through decreased cortisol and increased endorphins.

If you have followed Sensational Path this week on social media you know that Betty White got a huge makeover. I connected with @sonz1 a graffiti artist in Medicine Hat and he did an amazing job painting the bus so that she stands out on the road. But it’s still what’s inside the bus that makes the difference to the kids and families I work with. Learn about the whole transformation and what is in store for the bus “down the road”.

Check out the bus on social media and I should have new photos up on my website soon.
