The Little Lounge

🤸🏻‍♀️Sensory seekers (ya know the ones.... who are always moving, climbing, fidgeting and/or sitting in unique ways) may get labeled as the kids who are "too much" OR we could teach them about their brain, how it's designed to move to learn and ways to support it.

🙋🏻‍♀️Want to know how to support a sensory seeker?

💗Our next Simplifying Sensory Class is Tuesday December 16th from 10-11am The Little Lounge!

This Pop Up Parenting class series is a game-changer if you have a child ages 3-10 who is a sensory seeker or sensory avoider with big emotions, potentially a slightly bossy attitude and a hard time focusing.

We are on a mission to empower parents to confidently use sensory and behavioral strategies at home and the community using a simple 3-step method we developed after 40+ combined years as Pediatric OTs and parent coaches to transform chaos into calm.

❄️ Winter Craft Series at The Little Lounge ❄️
Playful, skill-building crafts led by our Pediatric Occupational Therapist!

Join us this season for a cozy and creative Winter Craft Series designed to support your child’s development through hands-on fun!
Each session is led by our pediatric occupational therapist, Claire, who thoughtfully selects crafts that strengthen important foundational skills through playful, confidence-boosting activities.

Across the series, children will practice:
- Fine motor skills using small manipulatives and tools
- Visual motor integration for cutting, tracing, and matching
- Bilateral coordination as they use both hands together
- Spatial and body awareness while placing pieces and assembling crafts
- Creativity and self-expression in a supportive environment

Each week features a new themed craft—like tomorrow’s Gingerbread Man at 1 PM—that blends seasonal magic with purposeful skill-building. Perfect for toddlers and young children who love to create, explore, and learn through play.

Space is limited to keep sessions small, cozy, and therapist-guided.

Cant make it tomorrow? Stay tuned for our other winter themed crafts on 12/10 and 12/17

Reserve your spot on our website under the 1pm open play spot. Ticket includes the craft and 60 minutes of open play!
