Regulation Tool: Mermaid Pillows
I just love these pillow cases! I also bought these inserts to go with them. Every regulation tool can be used for any zone and they can have different effects on each child, but Mermaid Pillows seem to most often help kids who are in the yellow zone and feeling worried, overwhelmed, scared, or frustrated. …
Using Toca Boca World in Speech & Language Treatment
