Webinar - Live - Home for the Holidays with Bethany Brewin and Danielle Nolan

As we approach the holidays and school winter break, you may be decking the halls, lighting the Menorah, or building a snowman. You may also be wondering: “how can I encourage my child to take a well-needed break from school or therapy, without losing the momentum and structure of daily routines?” 

Join Bethany Brewin (Occupational Therapist, M.Sc. O.T.) and Danielle Nolan (Social Worker, MSW RSW) for a winter-themed webinar that aims to support caregivers in continuing to build skills across a variety of areas, while having fun as a family and enjoying all the season has to offer. 

Bethany and Danielle will provide information on 5 different activities that you can do at home during the holidays, with minimal supplies or preparation. The activities will highlight 5 skill areas: fine motor skills, gross motor skills, sensory skills, calming/mindfulness skills, and socio-emotional skills. This webinar is appropriate for children of all ages. 

We hope these activity recommendations give you some ideas of where to start when looking for fun activities to try with your family.
