69. Five Sensory Therapy Hacks Every Busy SLP Needs
Feeling overwhelmed by back-to-back therapy sessions and endless IEP meetings? You’re not alone.
In this episode, I’m sharing my top 5 sensory therapy hacks to make speech sessions easier, more engaging, and less draining for you. You’ll learn:
-
How to use sensory bins to boost attention and motivation
-
Simple tricks like bubble storms and sandwich squishes to keep kids engaged
-
Ways to build in movement (crab crawls, big Spider-Man jumps) for sensory feedback
-
Why embedding sensory input makes sessions run smoother and kids learn faster
These are strategies I personally use in my therapy room and build into every activity in the SIS Membership.
