9 years ago, I had the honor of continuing the legacy of Suma Kids! It’s been a fun and adventurous ride! I’m so grateful for opportunity to continue to serve the children and families in our community!!

If you’ve ever wondered where the name Suma came from, it’s from the founder SUsan MArcus Sachs 😊

Today I had the honor of providing a workshop on executive function to an amazing group of teachers at a local private school!

As OTs, we bring such a unique perspective to supporting executive function skills. Our background in sensory processing and regulation, development, and task and environmental analysis allows us to look beyond the skill itself and think about what might be getting in the way, so we can improve participation and strive for independence!

I love getting to share what we know as OTs, collaborate with educators, and connect with our community. Definitely one of my favorite parts of what I do!

Thank you to all who joined our first open gym pop-up, 🥷 Ninja Night! Here is the before…we had so much fun, we forgot to get any pictures of the action!

We set up some structured obstacle courses, some quiet activity options, and had our “chill out space” available for those who needed a break. The kids also used anything they found interesting in the gym to play and interact!

Our pop-ups are perfect for children that love community play spaces, but get overwhelmed. We keep it small, and use our OT expertise to adapt the space and help with regulation during play!

We plan to host another one soon! Be sure to check out our events page on our website: www.sumakids.com/events

🥷 Reminder! Tomorrow is our Ninja Night Pop-up 5:00-6:30 pm! Be sure to sign up in advance! Link in bio!

Join us for an active, play-based experience where kids can climb, jump, balance, and explore in a fun and supportive environment. Ninja Night features an open gym-style setup with obstacle courses, crash pads, and movement-based challenges designed to support coordination, confidence, and social engagement.

This is a low-pressure event where children can move at their own pace and engage at their comfort level. Optional “ninja challenges” will be available for those who enjoy added structure.

Open to children ages 5+ of all abilities.
Parents are required to remain on-site and actively supervise their child during the event.
Please note: Children should be able to follow basic directions, maintain a safe body, and independently manage toileting needs.

For safety, all participants must have a signed equipment waiver on file prior to participation.

A fun and engaging way to support movement, connection, and play.
