Snowdrop: Principles of Treatment.
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/p/principles-of-treatment.html
My work is based upon two principles. The brain is plastic. What do I mean by plastic? The brain is capable of altering its own structure and functioning to meet the demands of a particular environment. What evidence can be produced to sustain this view? Current Biology, March 10th, 2009). Now consider what a developmental disability. Such as that which produces. In effect does to a child. It creates a de-facto impoverished environment because the child’s. So, the first principle of. For the child. (...

Snowdrop: The Distance Programme.
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/p/distance-programme.html
It is stressed that it is then the responsibility of the parents to gain approval for the programme from their child's doctor, so that he may suggest amendments to the suggested activities in light of any medical problems the child may have. It is also stressed that the preferable option is to attend a full developmental evaluation in the UK, however I do appreciate that parents may find that the option of a 'distance programme' makes treatment more accessible to them.

Snowdrop: The Importance of Tummy Time.
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-importance-of-tummy-time.html
Saturday, 17 May 2014. The Importance of Tummy Time. Nowadays we also have a fear of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, which quite rightly keeps babies on their backs for a huge amount of time. However, this does have developmental drawbacks because in terms of mobility development, when a baby is on his back, he is upside down. Tummy time: strength, gross motor development, and intelligence. When and how much? The developmental consequences of tummy time are the development of crawling, which has profound k...

Snowdrop: The programme
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/p/programme.html
What does a programme look like? A programme consists of two parts as follows. A 20 - 30 minute series of structured activities individually tailored to your child's developmental needs. Each activity lasting between 1 and 5 minutes in length. This entire structure is then repeated for the prescribed amount of time. How intensive is a programme? I would repeat that parents who cannot commit to working with their child at this level of intensity. Consider a Snowdrop programme. As you can see, there are se...

Snowdrop: Aims and Objectives
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/p/aims-and-objectives.html
My aim is to work with parents to enhance the abilities of all children who have developmental problems. I believe that every child has the right to the opportunity to fulfill his / her potential. I see children who have been completely written off, whose parents have been told to expect little or no progress, but more often than not, between us we manage to defy those predictions and progress is indeed made!

Snowdrop: November 2014
http://snowdrop-snowdropblog.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 27 November 2014. Language Development on the Snowdrop Programme. Another highlight from last week on the Snowdrop Programme, as one mother writes;. So how do we produce results like this? How is it possible to take a child from being "just able to say a few sounds," through to producing words and answering questions? Let's examine some of the major reasons. The third factor which will affect language development is direct injury to the left hemisphere of the cortex, around the regions known as...
