A record of at least one communication as a result of your blog postings:
I have got a record of one of the comments I made on the blog that had paediatric occupational therapy tips.

 Ashley Given said...I love this idea of a tactile sensory board i have never heard of this before but it is such a great idea. Children love being creative but its even better when you can play and feel different sensations with the finished product. Good idea for occupational therapist working with children.
