I'm here with a fun idea for therapy! Three words: invisible ink pens.
The link will take you to the exact pens I purchased from Amazon. The ink is clear and each pen cap has a light so you can see the ink.
They aren't that expensive and I love the little cartoons on the side- perfect for the little ones. Fun!

| Invisible Ink Pens |
Obviously, the ink is clear so the students won't be able to see what they're writing as they write it. So for students with fine motor difficulties or that find writing a challenge, perhaps use it for more of a simple drawing or "revealing" activity.
A quick brainstorm of how to use in therapy:
1. Outline drawings or play connect the dots with a speech and language activity.
2. Write the answers to the work and have students reveal the truth with the light.
3. Have the students write a "secret" note, or you can write a "secret" note to them following short segments of work for them to have a surprise after each segment to keep them motivated.
I'm sure there are more ways to use the pens. How would you use the invisible ink pens in therapy?
Joyfully,
