As a speech and language pathologist, I often meet persistent and loving parents who are eager to put their child in speech/language therapy, but are subtly hesitant when I recommend occupational therapy (OT) simultaneously. Their usual response? “Speech lang naman ang concern, bakit kailangan pa ng OT?” 💭

‼️ Here’s what I try to explain:
A child has to be (1) regulated, (2) engaged, and (3) able to attend before meaningful communication can develop. That’s where occupational therapy comes in. It helps build foundations for communication through movement, play, and sensory work that support the brain, which directly support speech and language progress

Think of OT as the “soil” that speech grows from 🌱 Without it, overall therapy progress may be slow or stalled

Let’s give children what they truly need; not just speech, but the support that helps speech come alive 🗣️ I know it can feel like “extra” work or expense, but when we give them what they truly need, that’s when the real breakthroughs begin 💚

It all starts with tummy time! Baby milestones fall into three stages:

Primitive Stage- Birth to 3 months
Transitional Stage- 4-9 months
Mature Stage- 10-12 months

The Primitive Stage is that time right after birth and lasts up to around the three month mark. During this stage we’ll see the baby interact visually with the world around them. They watch, listen, and make basic movements.

The Transitional Stage is that period of time around 4 months to 9 months of age. We’ll see greater development of things like grasp and controlled movements, effort, interaction with the world around them, and intentional movements.

The Mature Stage occurs around 10 to 12 months. During this period, baby freely moves their body to manipulate items in their world. They improve and refine mobility, grasp, and communication.

Each stage of baby development has their own hallmark milestones.

Typical development follows a pattern in child development. Progression through developmental milestones typically occurs in areas of fine motor skills, gross motor skills, the senses, cognitive development, and social development. Use these play activities as development-based activities to guide and foster play.

What a fun activity that targets various social interaction skills! The kids wrote some words that describe their classmates, and stuck the heart on that classmate’s jars. It was so cute seeing the kids feeling “kilig” and grateful for the compliments they received. Some of the words we saw were “cool”, “pretty”, “stylish”, “kind”, and even “best friend”. 🥰

Who doesn’t like words of affirmation, right? 😉

Wow! We are so grateful for this new milestone. Thank you for all the support! 🥰💞To God be the glory! 🙏🏻
