The In-Sync Activity Card Book: 50 Simple Activities to Help Children Develop, Learn, and Grow!

As a music, movement and drama teacher for 25 years (1976-2001), Carol observed many out-of-sync preschoolers. To help them become more competent in their work and play, she began to study sensory processing and sensory integration ("SI") theory. She learned to help identify her young students' needs and to steer them into early intervention. In writings and workshops, she explains to parents, educators, and other early childhood professionals how sensory issues play out - and provides fun and functional techniques for addressing them at home and school. She is best-known for her book, The Out-of-Sync Child, which has sold more than 600,000 copies (September 2013). Over 400 sponsors have brought Carol to their communities for presentations, both in the United States and abroad -- including Australia, Canada, England, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Mexico, and Singapore.
