A Treasure Trove of Speech Resources

Oh my goodness, I have found a treasure trove of resources that I just had to share with you. It’s Kmart! Who knew that so many great items were hiding in their stationery shelves. I know I have blogged about erasers before but my recent trip blew my mind and filled my trolley.  Let me take you back to where it started. Late last year I joined a Facebook group called Kmart Mums Australia. While there are heaps of posts about bedrooms and the like there are many which have great application for Speechies. I was hooked just before Christmas when I saw that they were selling light up drawing boards for $8.00 each.

I immediately ordered two for each of my clinics – you always need to be prepared for the possibility of a barrier game.

So, with a little time to kill this week, I headed into Kmart without a trolley to pick up some plastic boxes for our messy puzzles (a hint from FB). I was only there for 5 minutes before sending my son back to get a trolley – so many resources to buy. My first picks were coloured paper packs and heaps of glue. I love how a simple coloured piece of paper can lift and make a simple activity look better and more exciting. But this was only the start.  Click through for the rest of my awesome finds
