🎥 Have you ever thought about using video clips to help teach your child daily living skills? 🎥

Occupational therapists often use videos to break tasks down into simple, management steps and provide visual prompts for those tricky everyday activities.

There’s a huge range of helpful videos available online for skills such as:
Tying shoelaces
Making toast or sandwiches
Completing daily routines independently

Why video learning can be so effective:
Videos can be replayed as many times as needed
Playback can be paused, slowed down, or sped up
Instructions stay consistent every single time
Visual learning can build confidence and independence

Sometimes seeing a task demonstrated visually can make all the difference.

🚙Therapy progress is a lot like taking a road trip.🚗

Some stretches are smooth and easy. Others are rough, winding, slow-moving or full of unexpected turns.

No two journeys look the same.

For some people, progress comes quickly and visibly. For others, it’s the small wins; building confidence, improving participation, taking one more step forward than before.

Different goals. Different roads. Different outcomes.

If you ever have concerns about your progress, goals or therapy journey, speak with your therapist — open conversations help us adjust the road map together. 🤎

A tiny bite, but a huge milestone 💗

It’s that time of year… winter bugs are doing the rounds 🤧🌪️

If your household gets caught in the whirlwind of coughs, colds, and last-minute chaos, we completely understand, but please remember to let us know as early as possible if you can’t make your appointment.

Cancellations within 48 hours incur a cancellation fee, so the earlier you reach out, the better it is for everyone (and helps us offer your spot to someone else who needs it).

Thanks for helping us keep things running smoothly this winter 💙

🧞‍♂️Playdough 🧞‍♀️

There are so many fun ways to use playdough for hand strength, fine motor, hand manipulation, calming tool and to bring out your creative side. It can also be used to talk about shapes, colours and actions.

P.S. How great is Jodie, making fresh playdough in clinic!

🧱 We are loving LEGO in OT at CHM this week! 🧱

LEGO play supports development across multiple areas including sensory processing, fine and gross motor skills, and cognitive skills including problem solving.

Building with LEGO encourages imagination, creativity, social interaction and following directions which are all important life skills.
