A total sensory experience....





As I've said in previous posts, Miss A' has some sensory issues. Her occupational therapist is always encouraging us to gently persuade her to run her hands thru all kinds of different textures. A' is usually pretty resistant....doesn't like to touch anything. A few weeks ago, Miss A' discovered how fun her puppy is. Chloe is always willing to share a rough tongue, a wet nose, soft fur, and lots of puppy kisses with A'.....total tactile sensory experience! Chloe is now her most favorite "activity." She will play with her for hours, and the best part is that Chloe doesn't mind it a bit.

Totally random question since I don't know Anna, but do you think massage would help her at all? If you think it might, I'd love to try with her :)

SUCH cute pictures, Shelby! Little A is such a doll... I love how kids and animals love each other!
