• $85 Talisman card deck, a collection of illustrated cards that Middle School students can use to play a game that practices phonic skills.

• $99 Set of 10 Phonic Books that make up the Amber Guardians series, a set of longer stories that build reading stamina and motivate middle school readers.

• $199 Nex Playground - A NEX Playground is great for Lab students utilizing OT services because it makes students move, learn, and have fun at the same time. The motion-based games help students practice gross motor skills, balance, coordination, and sensory processing in an engaging way. It also supports social skills like turn-taking and teamwork, since multiple students can play together. The OT’s can easily adjust the games to fit different ages and abilities, making it useful for many goals. Because it feels like play instead of work, students are more motivated to participate.
