A versatile vest constructed from breathable, lightweight, stretchy fabric and featuring multiple pockets, Velcro strips and grommets for attaching the necessities of a successful session, the Functional Uni4m also serves as a visual reminder to all involved that therapy is serious business. With this in mind, parents will find this a useful product when working at home to re-enforce lessons learned in therapy, at home, or in school. Each Uni4m features numerous strips of Velcro across the chest that make the vest a "display board" to which the therapist/parent attaches visuals for programming, picture cards for communication, and tokens for a token board. A floating clear pocket also attaches with Velcro. This pocket can hold small reinforcers that serve as reminders of what the child is working towards and keeps these rewards handy. 
Back and front pockets provide ample storage for stimuli and materials used during the therapy session. The pockets are deep and stretchy and securely hold reinforcers, small toys, visuals, index cards, small pads of paper, writing instruments, even calculators and a two-way radio or telephone. Back pockets are ideal for hiding stimuli the therapist/parent does not want the child to see. Many items found under Special Needs>Distraction Toys are small and fit perfectly inside the front or back pockets of the Functional Uni4m. These toys work well at getting a child's attention and helping him maintain his focus. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapist and Master's student Michelle Schondorf designed the patent pending Functional Uni4m with features that enable her to have all the "ingredients" needed for an efficient, well organized session within easy reach. US$100 |
