Description:

Join us for an informative talk on the basics of Ayres Sensory Integration®, a therapeutic approach that helps us understand how children process sensory information and how it relates to their everyday lives. Sensory integration is foundational for learning and development. This session will include introduction of the senses that support sensory motor skills. Caregivers will also learn how to identify and seek out qualified professionals with expertise in Ayres Sensory Integration, ensuring that children receive the right support to thrive.
