Use this interactive book, social stories, routines, and language activities to prepare for the doctor. Discuss life skills such as body health and hand washing in speech therapy. These social stories and interactive book activities make the perfect addition to your life skills special education plans!

These life skills special education activities are designed to bridge the gap between learning and real-world application. They focus on important routines like visits to the doctor, hand washing, and overall body health.
