    New educational card game for word formulation!


    A new educational card game for word formulation helps children with reading and writing difficulties due to dyslexia to learn reading and writing more easily. The idea is simple: Making words with cards! With these cards, printed by the renowned Viennese card game company Piatnik, one can formulate letters and words using play.

    Scientific background:

    The educational card game “Letters2Words” was developed as a result of scientific discoveries that three-dimensional symbols are easier to recognize and retain.

    The three-dimensional presentation of letters supports the immersion process and facilitates the child’s connection with them.

    Scientific research has shown that this process is a crucial requirement for people to learn writing and reading more easily and satisfactorily.

    Equine Therapy at the Big Heart Ranch in Malibu

    Equine Therapy is an experiential, evidence-based therapy involving horses. The client works with the horses, along with a certified horse specialist and therapist, to help achieve the client’s goals. EAP is appropriate for individuals of all ages, as well as groups, families, and couples.

    Ideal for kids and families struggling with:

    • Addiction
    • ADHD
    • Autism
    • Eating Disorders
    • Family Conflict
    • Learning Disabilities
    • Social Anxieties

     

    Through a series of activities, participants identify with the horses and learn how to better communicate with others. Participants work on problem-solving games, such as moving the horse through an obstacle course. Activities help clients learn to trust their thought processes as well as work in a team to think and act outside their comfort zone.

    Equine Therapy increases empathy through grooming activities and caring for the horses. The horses keep the participants in the moment, focused on a task, and completely honest. All EAP sessions are facilitated by a licensed therapist or a Marriage and Family Therapist Intern under the supervision of a BBS licensed supervisor.

  • Dyslexia – Dyscalulia !? Now available!

    Available in english, spanish and german.

    For those enveloped in a world of chaos, confusion and misunderstanding, Dyslexia Dyscalculia ?! is the new “iconic” global position system for minds that aspire for a better understanding to guide those suffering from dyslexia.

    In this awe-inspiring publication, renowned authors, Dr. Astrid Kopp-Duller and Livia R. Pailer-Duller, perpetuate their title as the authority on the subject as they delineate the necessity of intervention with incredible insight at the educational-didactic level. Which, is of preeminent importance for success in the training of those who have difficulties with reading, writing or calculating.

    Infused with the key ingredients for successful training, the authors’ erudition of the most complex aspects of the pedagogic processes have been simplified in an epicurean recipe for the successful teachings of a misunderstood and somewhat unchartered methodology.
