#117 Incorporating Motor Activities into Speech Therapy

Join Laura Mize, pediatric speech-language pathologist, and Kate Hensler, developmental interventionist, as they discuss issues related to communication and developmental delays in babies, toddlers, and young preschoolers. Tonight's questions are from a Developmental Therapist who is in a state making drastic budget cuts (Aren't they all?) and now finds herself as the often the only professional on a child's team. What's a therapist to do in these situations? Ideas for addressing fine and gross motor skills in play activities IF/WHEN this is appropriate.
