Therapy Dogs and the Value of Pets

By:

VUSD SEL Cadre

Description:

Animals are wonderful at reducing stress levels. Arranging for a calm pet to "visit" children virtually could provide a talking point for relationship building and gives children another subject to learn, communicate, and write about that they may not have access to in their own surroundings. If it isn't feasible to have an actual pet at home, this is a great virtual alternative.
