In this episode Dr Ruth makes sense of the sensory issues that may present for young children with developmental delays. We talk about the 7 sensory systems and the ways in which some children may have difficulty processing certain input, but be super motivated by others. Understanding that all children have a unique sensory profile helps those around them develop fun play activities to support engagement and motivation to communicate. It's all about balance!
In this episode we also preview our incredible Xmas single that has been made by the wonderful Katie and our little Play2Talk pupils at our London nurseries. It's available for pre order on spotify. it's in the last stages of being processed on Amazon music and Apple and it's available for download here Snow is Falling- By Katie T and the Play2Talk Kids - Play2Talk Nursery

In this Play2Pod Meet the Experts Special we have the abslute honour of talking to a long time friend and hero of ours, Professor Sally Rogers. With over 40 years of experience in autism research, early identification and intervention, Professor Rogers is an esteemed expert in the field.
We talk about the development of the Early Start Denver Model and the impact this approach has had on developing effective support for very young children. We also discuss the importance of early support for young children with ASD and the power of parent led intervention, even in places like the UK where there are very few options for effective, evidence based therapy services.
