TACPAC Set 5 Resources

Welcome to Set 5 resources for TACPAC.

If you have been on the Essentials Training for TACPAC, you will already have explored how to use a lot of these activities. Some tips which might help while preparing your objects:

  • Make sure your squeezy bottle is QUITE empty. Stand your shampoo or soap bottle upside down until the last bits have drained out.
  • You might like a big water bottle for your use, and a smaller bottle with a narrow “waist” for your receiver to handle during the activity. Fill ¾ of the bottle with water, leaving enough air so that when you rock and tip, the water makes a splashing sound. Put beads, glitter, buttons, and anything else which might float or scrape, into the bottle. Do this with both big and small bottles.

When using the scarf, use small movements of lifting, squeezing, lowering and moving in sequence and in time to the music. Spread the scarf under the receiver’s body. You might want to prepare 2 scarves under their body if moving in time is difficult. Remember your body patterning and stick to it. Consistency helps anticipation.

Good luck! Hilary Wainer TACPAC founder
