    My students love this resource. I adapted it a little for my IDS (severe) students, but the sheets work well!! My autistic children also benefited and gained skills.

  14. Veronica O.

    omg wow so much valuable information! I love how Allison thought of everything play-based related. I love how it’s easy to understand and I can easily hand off a page or 2 to a new SLPA who has no idea what play based therapy is or how to take data. Such a great learning tool to have. Highly recommend!
