There are so many changes this time of year that affect our intense kiddos. Our routines are off, there are new or uncomfortable places to visit, we're managing family members who do not understand our kids, plus all the excitement and anticipation. Sarah Collins joins Colleen again, this time to talk about ways to meet the sensory needs of our kids and anticipate some of the challenges they may face. Let's jump in and ready ourselves for the holiday season!

Our sponsors for today's episode are CTC Math and Reading Eggs
