COURSE 005
Note: Shirley Sutton is co-author of "Building Bridges Through Sensory Integration". She provided us with a terrific hand-out booklet that is too lengthy to reproduce here. However, I do have permission to display a brief overview and her resource list. I highly recommend that you sign up for her workshop the next time she's in your area, because it was awesome! She provided us with all the tools we needed to come up with our own sensory grab bags, using materials from dollar stores and just stuff from around the house.
