The ConTENT Zone: Bringing the OuTdoors In
(2017-04-08) Trantham, Kala
The ConTENT Zone is designed to help children be able to self-regulate when they are having issues with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), which is important so that children can perform everyday life tasks at home, at school, and in the community, which will help the child to live a more meaningful life. This area is a place that a child can go when they are feeling stressed out or over stimulated. The project includes a child's tent, a weighted sleeping bag for proprioceptive input, tactile s'more pillows, a bolster log for vestibular input, and videos that provide soothing auditory and visual input. Incorporating the outdoors into therapy is important because of the many sensory benefits that the outdoors provides. In most therapy settings however, it is most practical to incorporate nature indoors. This is what the indoor ConTENT Zone seeks to do.

Healing Through a Story: How Occupational Therapy Creates Meaning Through the Grief Process
(2018-04-18) Cambron, Faith
As an occupational therapy Expo Project, this book was written in collaboration with Kathryn Schneider in memory of her adoptive daughter, Eiris Hosanna. The occupational therapy student used the writing process of this book as grief therapy for Kathryn and her other daughter Islah. The book, titled In His Sight: Loved Beyond Measure, is filled with treasured pictures of Eiris with her family, loving notes from both Kathryn and Islah, and finger paint illustrations to add color to the pages. The theme of the book echoed statements of "Thank you, Eiris," as Kathryn and Islah recalled the many things Eiris taught us while she was here on this earth. The book concludes with a personal note from the occupational therapy student about her connection with the family.

The Living Puzzles
(2017-04-12) Hay, Brandi
The living puzzles are three puzzles that were manufactured out of pictures that I personally have taken. I had my pictures manufactured into three different size puzzles with varying piece counts: one is 8 inches by 10 inches with six pieces, one is ten inches by twelve inches with twelve pieces, and one is eight and a quarter inches by eleven and three quarter inches with thirty pieces. Each puzzle has also been designed to incorporate various textures, depending upon the image that is presented. These Living Puzzles can be used to address many physical, cognitive, and psychosocial components through a variety of activities. They can be used in group settings, one on one, or individually to work on problem solving and tactile exposure and adaptation. The Living Puzzles can be used by anyone who is looking for tactile or cognitive exposure, but is designed with the pediatric area of practice in mind. It is my hope that the images on these puzzles provoke interest and excitement and that they are seen as fun activities that can also be used to address so many components.

Mrs. Kibelbek's Wiggel Worm Kit
(2018-03) Keys, Lindsey
This is an idea that I brought over from the graduate project that I did this year called, On The Move for Success. It is all about allowing kids to have movement breaks to increase their attention, focus, and improve behaviors. I just decided I would add more items for this expo project. I know when I am sitting in class it is nice to sit on a yoga ball and have some movement while listening to my professors. So, I thought I would implement different seating options for Mrs. Kibelbek’s class. I decided I would add three different seats and also implement fidgets to allow the students to hold and place in their lap, so they are not up and moving which tends to distract students at this age. This topic is so interesting to me because I love kids and I want to see them succeed, and I have been able to see the improvements that is gives to our kids and that just really sits in my heart.
