Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
In this special episode of the No Problem Parenting Podcast, we Celebrate World Down Syndrome Day highlighting two amazing resources for parents raising children with special needs.
First, Drew Vernon shares how Tonies, an innovative screen-free audio storytelling experience designed to ignite children’s imaginations and encourage independent play is supporting teachers, librarians, hospitals and children with special needs.
From their colorful Toniebox Smart Speakers to a diverse library of age-appropriate content, Tonies offer a refreshing alternative to screen time, nurturing a love for storytelling in children aged three and older. For educators interested in incorporating Tonies into their classrooms, Drew shares valuable insights and resources tailored specifically for teachers.
In the second segment, we’re joined by Jacks Mom, Carissa Carroll, founder of Jack’s Basket as she shares her personal journey of receiving Jacks diagnosis. Carissa shares the vision behind Jack’s Basket and the impactful initiatives they undertake to ensure every child with Down syndrome is celebrated and embraced by their community.
Listen in as we celebrate diversity, spread awareness, and uplift the voices of children with Down syndrome on World Down Syndrome Day and every day. To hear the full interview with Carissa Carroll, tune in to Episode 121 and visit Jacks Basket here: https://jacksbasket.org/
