Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This book is perfect for those working with young children, but broad enough to be adapted for older children and adults. It provides creative techniques and useful tips while offering innovative strategies and practical advice for dealing with everyday challenges, including managing behaviors, improving muscle tone, developing social skills, selecting diets -- and more! Written by three experienced occupational therapists, Building Bridges through Sensory Integration offers a combination of theory and strategies. Part one explains the role of occupational therapists in treatment and an examination of the theory of sensory integration. Part two offers methods of identifying sensory integration problems in children, along with a range of strategies and activity suggestions.

I'm an occupational therapist and have taken entire courses in sensory integration that were not as clear and helpful with ideas as this book.
Rated by buyers -
As an occupational therapist, I love this book for the suggestions it provides to the very practical everyday difficulties parents face when their child has sensory integration issues. To me, the only downfall is that it refers to children with autism so much. I have used it with any child with sensory integration difficulties, but have had to create my own handouts based on the book to avoid offending parents whose children are clearly not autistic. It addresses things like brushing teeth, getting to and staying asleep, and problem behaviors like biting, hitting, and so much more.
Rated by buyers -
This is a great book for any parent with an autistic child. Occupational therapist use this book them selves. The book gives good fundamental info on sensory issues and provides good strategies on how to help your child. Outstanding book
