May 2026

Welcome to our May Sibshop.

Our Sibshoppers are gearing up for summer time. We made some Summer Boredom Buster Buckets with all sorts of bucket list items for summer fun. 

Following our welcome and introductions, we headed outside to try and enjoy some warmer weather.

 It turned out to be quite windy but we made the best of it. 

We had a great time playing some fun pool noodle games. 

We enjoyed our time sharing our experiences while using our Emotion Wheel.

After lunch, we decorated some delicious cookies with some 

even more delicious frosting and fresh fruit.

We wrapped up our May Sibshop with a discussion activity called "True/False/Sometimes." Each Sibshopper reached into a bowl and pulled out a discussion prompt. They then shared if that statement was true for them, false for them or sometimes true and sometimes false. 

See you in June for a Deaf Blind Simulation Sibshop. 

April 2026

 Welcome to our April Sibshop!

We gathered and started creating right away. Our walking caterpillars were colorful and fun- and when we got the folding right they did actually walk!

After our welcome and introductions, we were excited to try out a new game to our Sibshops crew. 

The kids really loved playing "Human Tic Tac Toe."

"Strengths & Weaknesses" provided a great opportunity for the Sibshoppers to find a partner and get to know one another better. They interviewed one another to learn all about the strengths and weaknesses of one another and their sibling with special needs. 

"Cups & Downs" is a Sibshops Classic that our Sibshoppers get a kick of out. 

Following lunch we tried out a new game which proved to be pretty hysterical.

 "Telephone Charades" had us equal parts confused and amused.

We wrapped up the Sibshop with a little bibliotherapy. The book was all about big emotions

. Our Sibshoppers shared their thoughts and experiences about anxiety, worry,

 self acceptance and emotional support. 

See you again in May!
