That&#039;s a great question, Sarah! If you see a baby pool in the yard, that could be a great conversation starter. You could also ask the family what they like to do, or what they would be doing if you weren&#039;t there...and then schedule to do that with them for your next visit. If you&#039;ve only ever done visits in the home, sometimes it can feel weird to ask families about other stuff they do, but you can use those conversations to learn more about the family so that the intervention strategies you teach the family are meaningful in lots of different familiar situations. It&#039;s always more powerful to go join those other activities instead of just talk about them and plus, a change of scenery is great for everyone. Good luck and let us know how the water table session goes!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Lisa Kelly, how do you convince families to session at the pool, even a baby one. I have one client I might try an out side session with this week at least a water table. But I have toddler and i started to take her to the pool this year and I just realized how many language opportunities there are. ALso ANyway have ideas about things to do with kids in the park or playground. When I go out with parents, we find the kids are so busy that we have trouble one keeping up with them and staying with them long enough to provide language and other development opportunities.  I love the busyness of the summer and knowing I will have some sort of break in the fall. A lot of my kiddos go to school in the fall so it is wonderful to see the progress they have made since they started.]]></description>

Definately a huge perk! I think a visit to the beach sounds like fun too. I hope others will share fun things they do during visits in the summertime too! Thanks Lisa!]]></description>
