Love when our students "graduate" to parallel play. With modelling and support from our fabulous therapy team, the students find play food and play dishes enticing. #autism #earlylearners #abatherapyoakville #shining_stars_support_services #abatherapymississauga #naturalisticteaching

2020 has been an unforgettable year for many. COVID19 shutdowns, illnesses and deaths have shown us the importance of placing value on simple things and being grateful. Shining Stars is grateful to the families, clients, caregivers, team members and colleagues for their unwavering support in 2020. The silver lining is the amazing and heartfelt thanks we receive. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at Shining Stars! #abatherapyoakville #shining_stars_support_services #merrychristmaseveryone #abatherapy #abatherapymississauga #ThankYou

Labeling is an important skill that propels conversational skills for students with ASD. Here are students are working on developing skills in labeling. By using objects and toys that the child is reinforced by, labeling can occur more rapidly. #shining_stars_support_services #centerbasedABAtherapy #ABATherapy #abatherapyoakville #abatherapymississauga #autism #autismlove #labelingaba

Shining Star's holiday tradition is decorating our mini Christmas tree with lights, child-friendly ornaments and at times taking in the sensory experiences attached to having a tree up (lights, textures associated with the tree). One of our Stars even decorated our tree with play food. How cool and original. #autismholidays #decoratingforchristmas #autismlove #shining_stars_support_services #joy

This bold but resonating statement appeared in front of me today. Couldn't agree more. Celebrate all of our student's accomplishments whether big or small, be present and invested! #shining_stars_support_services #studentswithspecialneeds #studentsmatter

It's extra special when siblings of our students with ASD bask in the pure joy of being a sibling. Here's an art piece completed by a sibling who thinks her brother is an "excellent" "marvelous" "amazing" "dude" and we couldn't agree more! #shiningstarssupport #specialkids #ASD #asdfamily #asdsiblings
