When handwriting or cutting is tough, it’s not about effort. It’s about skills still developing.

OT focuses on building the foundations for fine motor strength, coordination, and endurance through engaging and play-filled sessions.

💬 If your child’s teacher mentioned struggles with fine motor skills, we can help!

Parent-teacher conferences can bring up lots of emotions. Especially when you hear things like:
💬 “Your child has a hard time sitting still at circle time."
💬 “They rush through tasks.”
💬 “They’re having difficulty using scissors or writing.”

You’re not alone and it doesn’t mean your child isn’t trying. Sometimes, these challenges are connected to motor skills, sensory needs, or regulation skills. These are areas where occupational therapy can make a big difference.

At Children at Play, we help kids build the foundation they need for focus, coordination, and confidence in the classroom and beyond.

📆 Schedule a consultation to learn how OT can support your child’s success and joy in learning.

Holiday travel can be overwhelming, especially for kids with sensory sensitivities. Packing a sensory backpack filled with comfort items can make all the difference.

Pack a bag with items that provide comfort and a sense of calm. This could include a weighted blanket, noise-canceling headphones, a sleep mask, favorite fidget toys, preferred snacks, tactile toys, and a visual schedule of the trip.
