It is that time of year when we remember that fall is on the way.
While there is a collective exhaustion from Hurricane Irma passing through last week, it is time to resume our routines.
Today that means selecting a pumpkin recipe. However, pumpkin bread will have to wait as there is an oven on the fritz.
Hmmm, what are a YaYa and her assistant to do?!

On June 4, 2017, my pediatric Speech-Language Pathology private practice, Children’s Communication Center (CCC), donated and dedicated three Little Free Library (LFL) units to the children, parents, and community to highlight the joys of experiencing language, literacy & learning as a family.
We hosted a Take Your Parents to the Playground Day event, stocked the libraries with books for all ages, collected and donated books to our local Guardian ad Litem program, and celebrated with the community.

Daily, we filled it and it quickly emptied. It was immediately spotted by children on the playground. We smiled & watched little ones asked to use their parent’s phone to take a picture of the LFL.
We knew once it was established the Sharing would increase, but at the time it was mostly Borrowing.

As a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), I am forever looking for new ways to introduce SLP goals and objectives through play.
The art of playing is powerful and valuable, both for grand/parents and SLPs.
