Loving digital @TalkingMats I can now design bespoke mats easily and quickly. This one has enabled a thinker to tell me what he wants to put into his new planter. Such an asset to my OT tool kit 💚

5 years ago I was making a card set for my @TalkingMats accredited trainers course. Yesterday I had the pleasure of sharing the journey so far with OT’s from @RCOT_IP 💚 hoping to inspire more OT’s to use this amazing tool to support practice & enable better conversations.
