Book Information About the book Reviews
Comprehensive Early Stimulation Program for Infants (CESPI) is a comprehensive, step-by-step program created to develop a child's speech, language, cognitive, and social skills. It differs from other approaches to therapy in that it was designed with a "whole child approach" that includes sensory and motor components in addition to language stimulation activities in order to enhance learning through whole-body experiences. It also improves upon other programs by enabling users to record data and report progress. Written by therapists for therapists, CESPI helps reduce the burden of planning sessions and preparing activities. The package consists of an Instruction Manual, an Early Interventionist's Workbook containing the therapy modules, and a Parent/Caregiver Workbook that includes activities for use by parents and other caregivers in between therapy sessions, thereby empowering families to participate in their child's progress. "CESPI provides early intervention personnel and parents with a user-friendly, hands-on stimulation program of developmentally appropriate activities that integrate skills from all developmental domains."
