SodaPop Head


Today our Occupational Therapist, Rose Koziel, taught us a lesson on "controlling our fizz."



His real name is Lester, but everyone calls him Soda Pop Head. Most of the time he is pretty happy, but when things seem to be unfair his ears gets hot, his face turns red and he blows his top! Lesters dad comes to his rescue by teaching him a few techniques to loosen the top and cool down before his fizz takes control.



"There goes Lester. Watch him fester. His ears start to fizz. He gets mad as a griz. His face turns red. He's a Soda Pop Head. You just never know when Lester will blow. His cap will go flying. If it hits you, you'll be crying, so you'd better stay away from Lester today!"







Some of the strategies Lester uses to control his frizz instead
 of "popping his top" are:


- Taking 5 deep breaths
- The Push-Pull-Dangle
