From the Desks of Mary Jo Panter, COTA
And
Ali Baker, MS OTR
And the Wonderful World of Occupational Therapy

A few things we like to keep in mind:
*All children benefit from physical activity.
*Children learn through doing.
*Gross motor control helps to sharpen fine motor control.
*Children should play outside every day.
*Children should have opportunities to practice motor skills everyday.
*Children learn new motor skills through repetition and trial and error.
*Engaging in physical activity helps the central nervous system and sensory processing system make sense of the world around.
Parents,
Please find links to a variety of therapeutic activities; fine motor, gross motor, and visual motor activities that your child might enjoy!
