Pillows aren’t just for sleep… they’re powerful OT tools 🛏️✨

At home, simple pillow play can support your child’s development in so many ways:
👀 Calming deep pressure for emotional regulation, building strength and coordination, improving body awareness, supporting balance and movement skills, creating safe, cozy spaces to reset

Try this at home: make a pillow crash zone, build a fort, or create a mini obstacle course!

One of our favourites here!

Posting coins into a piggy bank helps children practise fine motor control, hand-eye coordination, and finger strength. It’s a quick activity that can support important skills through play.

Hide and Seek 👀
This is a classic game that can build so many skills. While playing, kids practise visual scanning, listening, problem-solving, body awareness, and turn-taking!

So easy to implement at home!
Sometimes the best therapy activities are the simplest ones 🩵

Big congratulations to our OT Master’s students Reza and Yadan for completing their first placement! 🎉

7 weeks flew by, and we were so grateful to have them here at Gumboots, as they began their journey toward becoming Occupational Therapists.
It was wonderful having them join in sessions, meet our team, and learn alongside us every day.

A big thank you as well to the families who kindly allowed Reza and Yadan to shadow their children during sessions. Your support helps shape the next generation of therapists.

Wishing them all the best as they continue their studies and future placements. The OT world is lucky to have you both! 👏

Tucking your chair in is something we do without thinking.
For kids, it’s actually a great little skill builder at home too!

Asking your child to push their chair in after meals helps with strength, coordination, motor planning and body regulation through heavy work 🪑

Here at Gumboots, modelling is one of our most powerful therapy tools.

Across OT, Speech and Psychology, children learn by watching, listening and experiencing skills in real-time, not just by being told what to do.

Children learn through observation before they perform independently.
That’s why therapy often looks like play, conversation and shared moments, because real learning happens in connection 🫱🫲
