Drive Thru menu card deck contains 10 exercises for Strength and 10 exercises for Attention. Includes 20 cards with easy exercises. Each exercise is designed to help children get the sensory input or muscular work they need to accomplish their daily tasks in the classroom. The Drive Thru Menu Exercises Program is for use with students in any elementary school classroom or in the home and can be introduced by a teacher, a parent or a therapist. They appeal to children because they are easy to learn, easy to do and best of all: they are fun! The programs are intended to provide engaging and meaningful exercises in situations where time is limited. The Drive Thru Menus Exercise Programs were developed by Tere Bowen Irish, an occupational therapist, with almost 30 years of experience in pediatrics and mental health. The programs are intended to provide engaging and meaningful exercises in situations where time is limited, in much the same way that drive thru restaurants can provide food for those without much time. They are ideal for classroom activities. Each of the pictures from both the Attention and Strength Menus are on a card size varnished heavy paper stock and neatly stored in a plastic reuseable card box. Fits perfectly into a backpack or a therapy bag! One side has the picture and the other side has brief instructions on how to do the exercise. Great for thoseoverwhelmed by an entire poster...Or, put several on a key ring and carry them around...Or, scatter them on the floor, hop to them, turn one over and perform the exercise. Endless possibilities!
