Power Cards are a tool for helping a child to change an unwanted, inappropriate behavior by capitalizing on an interest, person or character that has special meaning for the child.".

You can read about it in the box here - - I love that the kids appear older, possibly teenagers. A lot of the videos I find for my students seem very babyish and trust me, they let me know. I watched this full 10 minute. To get a better idea of what the site had to offer and was really impressed. You get a free 5 day trial and if you like it, it's only 4.99 a month! My name is Kar...

http://empoweredbythem.blogspot.com/2015/01/social-errands.html
Thursday, January 8, 2015. I take every opportunity I have to send my kids on social errands.
