About this ebook
MORE! Activities for families (can be adjusted for any age/ability group) to work on fine motor, gross motor, language and social skills
Integrates the use of a puppet & household materials
Provides specific greeting routine for group start and end to promote eye contact and engagement
As a parent of a special needs child, Dr. Kelley found that as she searched for materials regarding her own child’s needs, they were sparse and often not parent friendly. As a promise to her son and families in need, she has developed a parent version of many of the books she’s developed in an effort to allow parents access to materials that would otherwise be restricted by having access to a therapist. That being said, it should be noted, in no way are these materials meant to replace a trained therapist; however, many of the activities developed can easily be implemented by families without challenge. The Parent Resource Series strives to be an easy-to-use resource for families seeking tools and activities for their child, regardless of disability or ability.

This book and my work as an occupational therapist are made possible by the support and love of many wonderful people.

About the Author
Dr. S. Kelley, OTD, OTR/L currently practices as a pediatric occupational therapist in the school setting. She has facilitated the participation and skill growth for children in both regular education and special education programs. With a background as both an early childhood teacher and occupational therapist, Dr. Kelley has a unique and specialized perspective of education for children. Dr. Kelley specializes in the treatment of children in the early childhood self contained special education classes. After nearly 15 years of practice, Dr. Kelley decided to create resources for the school based and pediatric therapist to help facilitate effective and efficient practice. These resources reflect both the OT Practice Framework (AOTA, 2008) and the Common Core Curriculum (Common Core Standards Initiative, 2012). These resources were then made available in alternative formats for families and parents as a response from families and co-workers.
Dr. Kelley holds a Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education from Clemson University and a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She also holds a Professional Master’s and Doctorate degree in Occupational Therapy from Boston University. Dr. Kelley is registered nationally as a specialist in pediatric occupational therapy.
About the Resource Series
from Purple Toes Books
The purpose of the Resource Series, in various formats, is to provide the reader a collection of practice, easy-to-use activities to assist with various motor, language and social skills. The Resource Series is a result of over 15 years of practice in pediatric occupational therapy. Over the course of my practice, I have created, developed, borrowed, collaborated, brainstormed, altered and modified countless activities and tasks. I decided to create a written series of my favorite activities as I use them, in the classroom, in the home or in the clinic.
Although I encourage you to read this book and independently apply the activities and/or interventions in your daily practice, classroom or life, please remind yourself that professionals are available to help you if you need advice or direction. These books are designed to be easy-to-use, but various professionals can help with modifications or adaptations if you need them.
