Bubblewrap...The Real Stuff or The iPhone App?

OTs love bubble wrap.  It is such a sensory experience...the feel, the sound, the excitement!  We tape a sheet at the entrance of our room with a sign saying "please pop".  Now the iphone has an app for that.


Why not use both?  It follows the UDL principle of multiple means of engagement!

I have the bubble wrap popping app for the Android OS and my son really loves it.

What will they think of next?

Hey, I am an OT with a 3 year old who loves I-phones and bubble wrap too. In fact, I've even included her in one of my videos I recently entered into a contest at rehab.com. She jumps on bubblewrap in the video. Please check it out, the title is called "OT Man Loves His Job". And please vote if you think it deserves a vote. Thanks so much, Sincerely, Andrew otmania2000@yahoo.com
