As an O.T. and Director of MMM, summer is MY favorite time of year!!
I love the freedom of exploring various parks and playgrounds, playing in the water and have the opportunity to work with our students in a creative and collaborative manner while supporting their social skills, fine motor and gross motor skills and secretly having them do academic work; writing, reading and even math. This year we are resurrecting our "Summer'S Cool" Program

Our toddlers will participate in numerous sensory activities and experiences like obstacles courses and swinging, tactile sensory bins, arts & crafts, as well as music and dance time, story time and free play to explore social interactions and expand their curious minds while building solid foundations of development on different nature-based and sensory-based settings... One day at the park, one day at our sensory gym and one day we decide (based on the needs and interests of the children).
This will be customized to meet the motor and social communication skills of the enrolled children.
Lead by Masters level Occupational Therapists and teachers to provide professionally curated neurodevelopmental programing to support to your child's developmental foundation. No matter whether your child is developing typically or has some delays in motor skills or speech & language processing, our approach will build the motor skills and sensory processing foundation that is required to support all other skills. If you want your child to talk more, attend better, listen more, eat more or sleep better, they MUST move more!! Have them come move and play with us!!
