So many fun St. Patrick\u2019s Day sensory bin fillers are in the craft stores right now! One of the fillers I added last year to my St. Patrick\u2019s Day sensory bin<\/a><\/strong> were sparkly green top hats.\u00a0 I ended up pulling them out of the bin this year to use for another activity with beanie baby\/stuffed animals to have a St. Patrick\u2019s Day \u201cparty\u201d in therapy! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What we used:<\/strong>
-sparkly green top hats
-beanie babies and stuffed animals, or preferred characters from TV shows, etc\u2026
-painter\u2019s tape (you\u2019ll need something thicker than scotch tape for it to stick well)
-Melissa & Doug wooden cake set
-other play food\/drink items that you want to use<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The first thing we did<\/strong> was choose characters\/animals who were coming to our party.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Targets we worked on:<\/strong>
-animal names
-animal sounds
-sentence starters like \u201cLet\u2019s\u2026\u201d and \u201cIt\u2019s\u2026\u201d to work on mitigation of gestalts. (Examples: \u201cLet\u2019s get Pete\u201d \u201cLet\u2019s get a duck\u201d or \u201cIt\u2019s a fish!\u201d when we pulled one out of the box.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, we got the tape and stuck it to the bottom of the hats and then put them on the animals\u2019\/characters\u2019 heads.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Targets we worked on:\u00a0<\/strong>
-verbs:<\/strong> \u201cpull\u201d \u201ctear\u201d \u201cfold\u201d \u201cstick\u201d with the tape
-s-blends:<\/strong> \u201cstick\u201d \u201csparkle\u201d
-\u201con\u201d <\/strong>(either as a VC target or as a preposition target)

-CVC, VC, C1V1C2V2 words: <\/strong>\u201chat\u201d \u201cPete\u201d (when we used a favorite character), \u201con\u201d\u00a0\u201cparty\u201d and \u201chappy\u201d (They\u2019re \u201chappy\u201d they have a \u201chat\u201d for their \u201cparty\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-play imitation:<\/strong> we did exaggerated \u201cpuuuullllll\u201d when we pulled the tape off, and imitated\u00a0sticking the hat on, and doing different actions with the animals<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

After this part, we played with the cake set and other play food at our St Patrick\u2019s Day party!<\/strong>

Targets:<\/strong>
-verbs:<\/strong> eat, drink, cut, slice, stick (when we stuck on the velcro toppings on the cake)
-s blends: <\/strong>stick, slice, scoop (if you use an ice cream set to pair with the cake during this part!)
-animal vocabulary, following directions, WH questions:<\/strong>\u00a0 \u201cGive a slice to the pig\u201d \u201cWho wants a piece of cake?\u201d \u201cWho should we give this one to?\u201d \u201cWhat does fish want?\u201d \u201cPour a drink for the duck\u201d etc\u2026
-play imitation:<\/strong> cutting a slice of cake, cutting velcro food, feeding the animals,\u00a0pretending to pour in a cup, giving the animals something to drink
-food vocabulary<\/strong>
-categories: <\/strong>food vs animals, food vs drinks, and higher level categorizing such as fruits, vegetables, desserts, and meat.
-modeling \u201cLet\u2019s\u2026\u201d and \u201cIt\u2019s\u2026\u201d phrases:\u00a0<\/strong> \u201cLet\u2019s give one to the shark\u201d \u201cLet\u2019s get a drink\u201d\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s yummy!\u201d\u00a0
-core vocabulary:<\/strong> eat, like, want<\/p>\n\n\n\n
