Heads Up Helping!! In pdf format, read with Adobe reader.

Heads Up Helping is the story of a mother’s journey as she observes her son’s special learning challenges and responds with love and dedication. Drawing on her years of experience as a speech pathologist, Melinda begins her pursuit of educational methods and materials that will help her son achieve the potential she is convinced exists. With fierce determination, Melinda sought information to help her son Joshua both accept himself and find areas in which he could excel despite his attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), social difficulties, and sensory issues.
Over time, and with much experimentation, Melinda recognized which strategies, materials, and instructional approaches were most effective for her son and daughters. By becoming an astute observer and student herself, she gradually distinguished those techniques that worked most frequently out of the multitude of ideas she tried and those successes are shared in depth throughout her book.
Melinda offers practical strategies from both her personal and professional experience in helping children with auditory and visual distractibility, sensory issues, fidgeting and hyperactivity, daydreaming, and social communication difficulties. She offers teaching tips and information on how to effectively reach students in ways that are compatible with brain-based teaching techniques. The suggestions for modifying curriculum and adapting the learning environment are easily implemented and applied.
With heart-wrenching honesty and with humor, Melinda’s real-life examples reveal the trials and joys of teaching and parenting a child with challenges. Heads Up Helping is sure to be a wealth of encouragement and  practical support for parents, teachers, therapists, and others who are devoted to helping all kinds of special children.

Use these helium-strength balloons filled with rice or flour as a quiet fidget toy.  We recommend using the balloon in one hand at a time, alternating hands as desired. This not only promotes hand strength and allows for controlled movements, but will extend the life of the fidget balloon by
eliminating the twisting, poking, and pulling that tends to occur when both hands are used together.
Textures: rice (rough) or flour (smooth).

These videos are a multi-sensory presentation to aid in memorizing math
facts. One DVD now includes addition, subtraction, multiplication, and addition. Each comes with Adobe Acrobat files containing teacher’s guide and a booklet file that includes reproducible pages for written drills and practice. Each math fact “family” (0 through 12) has its own song and movement, and the math sentences are shown across the top of the screen as the Can-Do Kids perform. Math vocabulary is also taught throughout the DVD. These videos are appropriate for visual, auditory, and tactile-kinesthetic learners. They are excellent for the child who needs to be in motion, since they can exercise with the videos and work on math facts at the same time. The opening song on each video has the Can-Do Kids singing that they “can do all things through Christ”.

Designed to drape across the neck and shoulders to provide deep muscle pressure, with a calming, soothing effect. Can also lay on the lap. Three feet long; pea gravel filled to weigh approximately 5 pounds. Handmade, fabric color & style will vary.

Our Weighted Turtles are a big success, and very popular, but we have had some people asking if they come in larger sizes for their older children. Well, turtles can only grow to be so large, so we are introducing our “lap” cats. All are hand sewn. Weigh approximately 6 pounds. Handmade, fabric color & pattern will vary. (Officially proclaimed “adorable” by our daughters Beckie and Beth!)

These cute, individually handmade fabric turtles are filled with pea gravel and weigh between 3½ and 4½ pounds each. When placed on the lap, the deep pressure provides a relaxing sensation while maintaining a constant tactile reminder when it’s time to sit still. If a child stands up, the turtle
begins to slide and the child has an instant nonverbal reminder to remain seated. These turtles promote relaxation and can be enjoyed by children and adults. Each handmade; fabric pattern will vary.

Squishies by the dozen

A favorite with the middle school crowd, this grip is sure to be popular with all ages. Different designs and colors are appealing, while the soft texture accommodates inconspicuous fidgeting and provides sensory feedback.

Stetros by the dozen

This type of grip is easy to use and helps train the hand to hold the pencil properly. Right-handed writers point the arrow on the grip toward the pencil tip and place the thumb on the star. Left-handed writers point the arrow on the grip toward the tip and place the forefinger on the “star.” The index and middle fingers fit comfortably along the molded groove. A proper grip improves handwriting while reducing muscle discomfort and fatigue.

This device promotes a proper grip while reducing the stress on fingers. Hand cramping and “white knuckling” are uncomfortable and interfere with fluent writing. The Pencil Grip is made of a pliable material and slips easily onto a pencil or pen. It promotes a relaxed position for the fingers and hand. The Pencil Grip works equally well for right-handed or left-handed writers.

Toppers by the dozen

These are actually self-inking stamps that fit on the end of a pencil. Besides being a fun way to reward good work by putting a stamp on the paper, these toppers add a little extra weight to provide greater tactile input to the hand while helping tip the pencil into the proper position on the hand. This promotes better handwriting and helps children hold the pencil properly while experiencing greater handwriting success.

Skooshes by the dozen

Some children are naturally fidgety and full of energy. They are always in motion and doing something with their hands. Unfortunately, oftentimes this activity is loud and distracting, to fellow students, teachers…even themselves! You can spend a lot of time and effort trying to get them to be still and quiet, or you can give them an alternative. These fidget animals provide tactile sensations and an outlet for that surplus energy.
