This is a great article and I love your blog's focus on providing resources for Occupational Therapists and Child Development. I was wondering if it would be possible for one of my professors at Remington College to write a guest post for your blog. My name is Andrew Morris and my e-mail is andrew.morris@plattform.com
Thanks very much for your time!
