Hi Everyone!
More and more we are seeing children referred to Occupational Therapy for fine motor challenges. Poor pencil grip, mixed hand dominance, poor coordination and delayed drawing and cutting skills. It's important to identify challenges early and to have plenty of tools in your toolkit!
Join me for this fun and super practical 3.5 hour workshop filled with loads of tips and tricks as well as a handy resource booklet. You will be inspired! Small groups, limited spots!
