May is a month full of reasons to celebrate! Spring is in full bloom. The day to honor our mothers is in the middle of the month. School is almost out for the summer. And, we honor our fallen soldiers at the end of the month. We have gathered a bunch of great activities for each of these occasions that you must try.

Art, specifically drawing, is a form of controlled communication and can be especially beneficial to a child with an autism spectrum disorder. For children that have difficulty with receptive language or sharing themselves verbally, drawing provides them a unique outlet.

Earth Day is this Saturday! Try these great activities with your children to get them thinking about our environment and how they can help make the world a better place.
Whether you are having a big dinner with your extended family or just keeping it simple with your family at home, we have found some great ideas to keep everyone busy while using up some of those plastic Easter eggs and jellybeans that are sure to fill up the Easter baskets.
Standardized tests are designed to measure a small part of your child’s ability- tests measure the kind of skills and knowledge that happen in left side of the brain – everyone has those skills, but for some visual kids those skills may not be very strong.

Standardized testing is an important part of making sure our children are learning the things that they need to know for the future. However, some children test well, some children don’t.
