20 Snowman Crafts
Who wants to build a snowman? We do! This week we’ve rounded up some snowman crafts and activities. Each link contains a fun…
Listen, we have a bunch of really great, ready-made, materials on this site for therapists (truly, go check out the shop!). And they will usually come with one intended purpose or set of instructions. But honestly, nothing brings me more joy than taking one resource and making it stretch for multiple sessions, or sets of goals, across my day.
I think that spark orginated when I was working as a school-based SLP early on in my career. I had 60+ students on my caseload to see in a given week, had to see kids in groups based primarily on their schedule rather than their goals, and had VERY limited resources. That need to make a game fit multiple sets of very different goals continued to be a need, even after changing jobs to work in a very well stocked private practice where I was only treating children on an individual basis. I liked being able to gather up only one basket of toys at the start of my day that could carry me through the bulk of my day.
But I digress…
Enter: Modification Mondays! Let’s start working through games and resources and share ideas on ways to modify them to target different goals.
I’ll list some ideas here, you guys keep the ideas flowing in the comments. Deal?
Let’s start with our “I-Spy Ultimate MEGA Activity Packet.”

Looking at my treatment style, I would be less likely to use this packet in my sessions but would love to add this to my home-program grab bag.
Check out some of the images below and then leave us a comment about how you could modify instructions to reach your clients’ unique goals!
