Anne-Maree FortesMemberDoes anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for academic/fine motor products, games, toys, software etc that your kindergarten/grade 1 child has found particularly useful, rewarding or stimulating?
I know its a broad question, but just hoping for some ideas for new stuff. My son functions well with an SSW, and has significant language delay and poor fine motor skills. He loves his ABA sessions & school!
I've asked our consultant and team, but thought I'd reach out to this awesome group too and see what other ideas I get.
Anything in particular from http://www.flaghouse.ca/default.asp
or
