As the summer rolls on I'm starting to think of September and the sessions I offer to young people with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities).  Whilst out and about I grabbed a few bits for my sessions (photos below)........

• I thought the unicorn jewellery making set would be a great addition to the activities I offer in Girls Group and provide an activity to focus the girls whilst, perhaps, they are talking about issues which are important to them.  I brought this from Sainsburys and I think it was only around £3.00 so a real bargain.
• The wiggly eye rings are from Flying Tiger Copenhagen and will make a great addition to 1:1 interactions where a young person needs distracting or needs an opportunity to off-load their thoughts.
• The magnetic pegs (from Flying Tiger Copenhagen) will be used on the radiator to show the schedule for the sessions.
• And the lama sandwich bags (also from Flying Tiger Copenhagen) were just too good to resist!  I have no real reason for purchasing these other than I liked them and thought the young people would.  Ha ha ha.
• Finally I purchased a little notebook from Sainsburys (I love stationery at Sainsbury's - very quirky and pretty) for a family I am working with to record their thoughts and feelings and start to focus on improved mental health and wellbeing.  This is in conjunction with a variety of other interventions but I thought the note pad was very appropriate so though I'd mention it here.

And I'm off the Hobby Craft soon so watch this space..........
