Description
Poor sleep has immediate effects on behavior and learning. Anyone who has been sleep-deprived for even one night knows this. But for the special needs population, poor sleep can negatively impact safety and lead to placement in a more restricted learning environment. Everyone wins when parents and treatment teams understand how simple actions can improve sleep. Communicating practical information in a school or clinic can be a challenge. This set of 15 handouts on Kids and Sleep is ready to go to help educate others. This handout packet is part of this bundle deal!
The 17 page PDF digital packet will be available electronically immediately following payment.
Make your life easier with this set of 15 attractive, easy-to-follow handouts. Written by CathyAnn Collyer, OTR, LMT, they work equally well as individual handouts or as part of a larger informational packet.
