We were so blessed recently to have a
donation of therapy equipment from the Little Flower Project, Germany. Whenever
new equipment arrives we love to give the kids a chance to try it out- it gives
us a chance to see who it will benefit most and check it all works ok.
Talley loves to check out any new things
about the place, and so she didn't hold back on looking at all the new
equipment. Sitting on the balance board is rather fun she thinks, but quite
hard work on the tummy muscles- it should help you walk though Talley!
Next to find the new equipment was Hudson
and Lydia, who both come for therapy at the same time. Hudson is doing so well
in preschool and he always
chatters away throughout therapy sessions! He enjoyed trying one of the new
puzzles, it made a good way to cool down after all the effort he'd been putting
into the other activities.
After all that effort, Lydia thought that
it was about time for a little snack. She set about preparing some fruit and
vegetables for us all to enjoy using the new food sets (great for Lilian to use
in speech therapy too!).
After hearing about all the fun Esther and
Austyn thought they'd better try out some of the new kit too. The new pink
scooter was rather a challenge (someone made the handlebars a little too high
for her, and this leg co-ordination thing is quite hard work), but she found
that the ride on scooter was just perfect for whizzing about the room on!

When I see how far Lydia has come since this time last year I am moved to tears. Therapy (and a little love and attention) is amazing!
