It can be hard to find good activities for your kids, but these are some of my favorites that we've used over the years! Expect to find a variety of engaging activities that are not only fun but also help in nurturing your child's mind.
Being a neurodivergent child can be EXTRA hard - it's so difficult to find the words to explain what's causing stress or to know what's wanted and needed. I am taking the guesswork out of it for you and suggesting items to help reduce unnecessary or unwanted mental processing and provide relief for little minds. In here you will find a range of things that are focused on creating sensory underload for neurodivergent (ADHD/autism/dyslexic/dyspraxic/dysgraphic/dyscalculic/OCD) children. I genuinely do not believe we should ever ‘grow up’, so anything you find in here is also great for anyone of any age (as well as pet-friendly). Be kind to your mind and surround yourself with wonderfully neurodivergent-friendly items to create the mental peace, cosy relaxation, comfort, and gentle fun that we all deserve 🪁🫶

I am a middle school teacher of 20 years and mom to a 1st grader. A teacher’s reach only goes so far - it’s important for parents to set their kids up for success. Here are a few tips I suggest to parents and items I use in my home for my own kid.
1. Create a routine.
2. Provide a device-free setting.
3. Set up an area with all necessary supplies.
4. Use a paper homework agenda book.
5. Ask your child to see their finished work, even if they “finished it at school.”
6. Check your child’s parent portal often for grade updates and missing assignments.
7. Don’t be afraid to message the teacher (kindly/professionally) with questions!
8. Encourage independence!
Remember: You spend more time with your child than they do with their teachers. A great education begins at home!
