Plan before serving. Always follow the school or program's policy and each learner's written allergy and emergency plan. Read the complete label every time because products and facilities can change. “May contain” statements are voluntary, so the absence of one does not prove freedom from cross-contact. Ask the family or designated health staff before serving shared food. Prepare developmentally appropriate shapes, sizes, and textures; seat learners upright; and supervise eating.

Developmental Domains

Approaches to learning and executive function; social and emotional development; language, communication and literacy; cognition; perceptual, motor and physical development; adaptive and self-help skills; and creative expression.

Learning Areas

Mathematics, science, English language arts, social studies, health and physical education, visual and performing arts, and practical life skills across each unit.

Access & Family Use

Directions and response options may include spoken language, the learner's established signed language or communication system, AAC, print, symbols, demonstration, and real objects. Visual content is paired with accessible text or nonvisual description; auditory content is paired with captions, transcripts, visual cues, or appropriate signed-language access. High-contrast, large-print, structured digital-text, tactile, no-touch, movement, and home-use options are planned according to individual access needs.

Coming to Perfect Storms

The Perfect Storms Learning Library is growing with purpose.

Familiar woodland characters will continue across a connected resource universe for home, classroom, and community. Every collection below is still in development and is not available for purchase.

In Development

Color, Talk & Learn

Educational coloring pages about relationships, emotions, regulation, inclusion, responsibility, independence, and caring for creation, with teaching prompts and adult extensions.

In Development

“I Can” & “I Am” Collections

Practical skill, routine, independence, identity, worth, courage, kindness, resilience, sequence, home, classroom, coloring, and low-ink resources.

In Development

Feelings, Relationships & Safe Choices

Resources grounded in one message: feelings are okay, and children can learn safe actions, boundaries, help-seeking, and repair.

In Development

Body, Brain & Healthy Living

Interactive body-process models and hands-on lessons about anatomy, nourishment, movement, sleep, hygiene, senses, healing, and wellbeing without brain myths or health promises.

In Development

Nature, Science & STEAM

Connected learning about plants, animals, life cycles, weather, air, habitats, gardening, design, prediction, observation, measurement, testing, and revision.

In Development

Practical Life, Stickers & Adult Learning

Family-meal and table-setting lessons, functional learning stickers, intentional environments, choices, independence, boundaries, co-regulation, and relationship-based teaching.

One experience can connect many kinds of learning.

Planting a vegetable can include science, measurement, journaling, nourishment, movement, patience, food preparation, gratitude, and stewardship. New resources will cross-link these ideas so the library feels connected instead of becoming one enormous list.

Christian foundation, clearly labeled.

Scripture, prayer, gratitude, grace, service, stewardship, and other connections will appear where they naturally support a lesson and will be labeled Faith Reflection. Developmental, psychological, health, anatomy, nutrition, and science information will remain evidence-informed and clearly separate from theological teaching.

More resources are in development. Offers marked Coming Soon and app membership remain unavailable. Available products link to their Payhip listings.
