Monster Bash week here at Coastal was a blast! The Monster Bash week here at Coastal was a blast! The kids created Playdoh Monsters and loved scaring us with them. They had to roll a dice and put that number of eyes on it, then roll again arms, legs and feathers. This is a great fine motor activity to target counting and following directions. #sensoryplayideas #childdevelopment #momhacks #kidstherapy #pediatricoccupationaltherapy #pediatrics #occupationaltherapist #occupationaltherapy #coastaltherapy

Happy #betterhearingandspeechmonth 🔤 In our ses Happy #betterhearingandspeechmonth 🔤 In our session, we explore the fascinating G and D sounds through the magic of minimal pairs! 😄 It’s typical for young kids to substitute sounds, but once past a certain age (for this case, 3 years old) we expect them to be able to produce the sound naturally. When errors persist, a Speech-Language Pathologist can help intervene. We specialize in empowering young minds to conquer speech challenges with confidence and joy. 🌟 That’s where the approach of minimal pairs comes into play - we work on the target sound contrasted to the error sound. We need to teach the child WHEN to use the sound. Together, we’ll explore words like “go” and “dough,” emphasizing the critical difference in when to use each sound, as it can change the meaning of a word! 🏃‍♀️🍞 👁️‍🗨️ We start by utilizing visual cues with an interactive mouth model, bringing the sounds to life! 😄 Watch as your child discovers how to shape their mouth for the G sound. 🔊 We also love using the @bjoremspeech speech sound cue cards. 😍 Alongside visual cues, we utilize powerful verbal cues to help your child master the G and D sounds. Together, we’ll listen attentively to the G and D sounds by repeating words like “Game” and “Dame”. 💃 And let’s not forget the exciting gesture cues! 🌈 Our goal is to transform speech practice into a fun-filled adventure for your child! Remember, progress comes with practice. For more in depth information, check out our blog as we dive deeper into introducing these new sounds! 🙌 For additional resources follow @ashaweb . . . . . . . . #coastaltherapy #speechtherapy #speechtherapist #jacksonvillekids #pediatrics #jaxbeach #jacksonville #kidshealth #childhooddevelopment #tipsformoms #communicationmatters #betterhearing #bhsm #pediatricspeechtherapy #earlyintervention #kids #speechpathology #jaxbeach #nocatee #funforkids

“There is nothing worse than watching your child “There is nothing worse than watching your child struggle and feeling as though you are not fully equipped to help them. My daughter, Anna, was struggling with speech. It affected everything from her confidence to her reading fluency. We practiced and practiced her sounds. She has had several speech instructors over her very few years as a student. I watched her try and try, without any real progress. She had flash cards and worksheets and we played games. I saw no improvement and my daughter began to accept that she was just not going to succeed in speech. It became a challenge to motivate her to participate in the therapy. Then we started seeing Ms Tara and everything changed. Ms. Tara gave Anna real interventions and techniques- concrete strategies that I could implement at home. It sounds ridiculous but I cried the first time Anna said her R sound. We had practiced in the past to no avail and to watch her little face light up knowing that she now had the tools to make the correct sound was too much to take. Her progress is slow and strong. Neighbors, friends, and family have all mentioned how much easier she is to understand. She used to mumble because she was afraid to make the wrong sounds. She speaks differently now, with confidence and joy. Ms. Tara is also one of Anna’s favorite people. She gets so excited to see Ms. Tara, that she saves up everything going on in her life that week to share with her loving teacher. Ms. Tara pushes Anna to be her best and never accepts anything less. She observes Anna and intervenes with strategies unrelated to speech, as well. Anna knows that when she is with Ms. Tara, she is expected to devote all of her attention and efforts to their lesson. Ms. Tara knows my child. How many times have you taken your child to a therapist only for it to feel like the first time, everytime? Ms. Tara likes Anna and it is apparent. They laugh and have effortless rapport. Ms. Tara is truly invested in my child’s success and cares so much about her. How do you adequately thank someone for that? I am eternally grateful.” ~ Kathryn Haldeman
This little cutie is working on side sitting in hi This little cutie is working on side sitting in his pediatric physical therapy session. Side-sitting is a baby’s transition pose - it is from this position that a baby will most efficiently transition into and out of hands/knees from sitting, and progress from sitting to kneeling to standing! Side-sitting is the most challenging sitting position for your baby because their base of support is narrowed, meaning that they have to utilize more of their core muscles in this position to maintain their balance, as opposed to regular sitting. It can also provide an opportunity for weight bearing through their arms, which will help strengthen their upper body muscles needed for crawling. We also love side sitting because it sets them up to work on crossing midline and reaching! Side-sitting is usually mastered by ~7 mos, but can be introduced once your baby is starting to sit for short increments of time independently. . . . . . . . #coastaltherapy #pt #physicaltherapy #pediatrics #pediatrictherapy #babiesofinstagram #baby #babyskills #milestone #jaxkids #jacksonvillekids #bestofjax #jaxbeach #jacksonvillebeach #jaxhealthchamber

Think tummy time is just for babies? Think again! Think tummy time is just for babies? Think again! 😃Our physical therapist, Ms. Kaylee, shows us how she incorporates tummy time with older children! 🔹Time on our tummy promotes strengthening through the neck and trunk muscles for upright posture. When you add the element of pushing through your arms you’re including abdominal muscles, as well as stability through the arms to the mix. 🔹When reaching with one arm while on your tummy over an object, so many muscles are having to work together to hold the body stable. When your body practices holding itself stable in challenging positions, finding stability within the standing position or walking is more efficient. 🔹Stability in standing and walking positions is vital for promoting symmetrical movement patterns, as well as stability throughout the joints, to promote the most efficient walking pattern to decrease stress on joints. 🔹Doing these activities on the swing includes a vestibular component as well as a visual component. Who knew tummy time could be so fun?! . . . . . . . #coastaltherapy #jacksonvillekids #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #kidstherapy #playtherapy #strongkids #jaxkids #jaxtherapist #therapyforkids #pt #jacksonvillemoms #nocatee #nocateemoms #momsofjacksonville #bestofjax #jacksonvillefl #jaxbeachmoms #pediatrictherapy #pediatrics

What is it like to be a wife, a mommy, and a pedia What is it like to be a wife, a mommy, and a pediatric Occupational Therapist? Take a peek at Ms. Lanna’s day! 😍 What is Occupational Therapy you might wonder? 🤔 (OT) is a holistic evidence-based practice that helps people continue participating in any activity, whether physical or cognitive, that’s personally meaningful to them. Our goal is to help you continue doing what you love to do. OTs are trained to look at a person’s surroundings, habits, daily life routines and roles in order to assess how we can help you thrive! How can you adapt your environment and use routines to help everyone in your household thrive? We LOVE to support and promote health and independence! . . . . . . . . #coastaltherapy #sneakpeek #jax #jaxkids #jacksonvillekids #ot #occupationaltherapist #occupationaltherapy #growth #helpingothers #helpingchildren #jacksonvillemoms #jaxmoms #nocateeliving #momlife #workingmom #therapyforkids #milestones #goals #cute #behindthescenes #dayinthelife #goodvibes #sensory
