Description

Use this interactive book, social stories, routines, and language activities in speech therapy to prepare for the dentist. Discuss dental health, proper dental hygiene, and teeth brushing. These social stories and interactive book activities make the perfect addition to your life skills special education plans!

Utilize the interactive book and accompanying activities to incorporate life skills, social stories, and language into your classes. Learn what to expect and the appropriate vocabulary to make an intimidating experience, such as going to the dentist, feel manageable.

These life skills special education activities bridge the gap between learning and real-world application. They focus on important routines like dentist visits and brushing teeth, plus critical life skills like oral hygiene.

Whether you’re a speech therapist looking to enrich your sessions with social stories or a teacher aiming to provide hands-on learning experiences, this book keeps students engaged. With movable pieces that invite interaction, learners become active participants in their education.

✅ WHAT’S INCLUDED:

The interactive book contains three scenes (a waiting room, an exam room, and a home bathroom). You can flip through the rooms and move the children or objects onto the pages.

Waiting Room: The boys playing with blocks and reading belong in the waiting room. Discuss why and how we wait.

Exam Room: Discuss who dentists are and what they do. Teach dental hygiene vocabulary (toothbrush, floss, mouthwash, toothpaste). In addition, discuss the patient’s expectations (hold still, open mouth).

Home bathroom: The boy and girl brushing and flossing are meant to go in the bathroom to discuss proper dental hygiene/sequence/actions.
