Tea with the Lord Mayor of Portsmouth

Thank you to the Lord and Lady Mayoress of Portsmouth invited us for afternoon tea in the Lord Mayor’s Parlour yesterday to celebrate some of our wonderful achievements this term. They have been marvellous supporters of our charity over the past few years, and they enjoyed talking to our members and hearing about our activities. Thank you to you both for making us so welcome and for your continued support.

Posted @withregram • @i_am_remy_b Rice play again today! This is one of Remy’s favourite activities! Rice play is a great way for toddlers to playfully develop their fine-motor skills by picking up tiny grains, passing handfuls of rice from hand to hand, or scooping and pouring. Fine motor skill activities are great to help develop the skills needed to write later on! #iamremy #riceplay #sensoryplay #tufftray #tufftrayideas #tufftrayplay #tufftrayplayactivities #toddleractivities #toddlerlife #toddlersofinstagram #toddlerplay #sensory @portsmouthdsa #portsmouthdsa #portsmouthdownsyndromeassociation

Families like Remy’s deserve a more @positive_about_down_syndrome maternity experience.
We need to address the outdated attitudes and negative language around #downsyndrome still prevalent in maternity services.

Today’s after nap tray was play dough! Not going to blow my own trumpet or anything but my homemade dough was on point today! Super soft and squishy! Play dough is a brilliant activity for Remy which not only keeps him engaged for aaages but helps to develop so many skills. Play dough is great for working on those fine motor skills, improving the strength and dexterity in those little fingers by squishing and squashing. We talked lots about colours and the way the dough felt and Remy’s speech was flying today with lots of new words I haven’t heard before making an appearance! He lost a cutter under the sofa so held his hand up and kept saying “gone” whilst trying to show me where it was. He also said “play dough” “star” “roll roll” “squish” and “teddy” this boy amazes me every single day ❤️! #iamremy #playdough #tufftray #tufftrayactivities #tufftrayideas #sensoryplay #sensoryplayideas #sensory #dough #toddlersofinstagram #toddlerlife #toddleractivities #toddlerfun #speechandlanguage #speech #learningthroughplay #play #toddler #downsyndrome #downsyndromeawareness @portsmouthdsa

Max has always been successfully included in the mainstream setting with specialist support from #portsmouthdsa 💚

Not all pupils with #downsyndrome are given this opportunity; less than 25% of pupils with Down syndrome are included in mainstream secondary schools. This needs to change.

Remy enjoyed mixing the rice, flipping the pancakes and even tasting a few too! When we are doing activities like this Remy’s words seem to really flow out. I think he’s so engrossed he’s not thinking about talking and it just happens ❤️#iamremy #tufftray #pancakeday #pancaketufftray #pancakes #rainbowpancakes #tufftrayactivities #tufftrayfun #tufftrayinspiration #tufftrayplay #tuffspot #toddlersofinstagram #toddleractivitiesathome #toddleractivities #toddlerfun @portsmouthdsa
