This is my TOP selling Mother’s Day Gift 3 years in a row.

Just one more month until National Occupational Therapy month! In celebration of Occupational Therapy Month I will be selling a special OT Awareness Owl. Look for the Occupational Therapy Awareness Owl Necklace coming soon. 50% of my proceeds will be donated to Autism Awareness.
Occupational therapy enables people of all ages live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. It is a practice deeply rooted in science and is evidence-based, meaning that the plan designed for each individual is supported by data, experience, and “best practices” that have been developed and proven over time.
Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants focus on “doing” whatever occupations or activities are meaningful to the individual. It is occupational therapy’s purpose to get beyond problems to the solutions that assure living life to its fullest. These solutions may be adaptations for how to do a task, changes to the surroundings, or helping individuals to alter their own behaviors.
Thank you for AOTA for that helpful information (2010).
Deb,
Got the necklaces today and my daughter loved them!! Thanks so much.

Hi Deb,
I wanted to let you know how much I just love the Owl necklaces. I have wanted to get them for awhile now and finally ordered them and I’m so glad I did. I gave one to my daughter and granddaughter and they just loved them. I will definitely be ordering more soon. Thanks.
