Brighten Pediatric Therapy

Brighten Pediatric Therapy Dedicated to helping children of all ages grow, thrive and shine through occupational therapy. Hi, My name is Chantel, an Occupational Therapist here in Hobbs.

Occupational Therapy is the art and science of crafting the skills to do daily activities of life. An occupational therapist can work with anyone from age 0 to 100 to help them due to an illness, injury or difficulty. I have been doing OT for a long time and in a lot of settings and look forward many more challenges and opportunities. Lea OT Services will start a new and exciting after-school program that will be specialized circuit-training sensory-motor activities to develop whole learning.

Why Tummy Time Matters

Spending time on the tummy helps babies:
🧠 Build strength in the neck, shoulders, arms, and core
👀 Develop vision and visual tracking skills
🖐️ Improve sensory and body awareness
🚶‍♀️ Prepare for rolling, crawling, and sitting
💬 Encourage early communication through shared eye contact and smiles

Because every moment on the tummy builds the foundation for rolling, crawling, and future learning!

Looking for a Simple Way to Help Your Child Understand Big Feelings?

Try the Color-Light System and the “How’s Your Engine Running?” method!
Ask your child:
👉 “Is your engine running too fast, too slow, or just right today?”

💚 Green – Just right! Calm, focused, ready to learn and play.
💛 Yellow – Wiggly, worried, or frustrated. Time for a quick reset — wall push-ups, stretching, or deep breaths.
❤️ Red – Overwhelmed. Needs quiet space, deep pressure, and your calm presence.

💡 Helping kids notice how their bodies feel before they explode builds lifelong emotional awareness and self-regulation!

🍴Parent Tip: Building fine motor skills can start right at the family table! 🍴
Encourage your child to:
✅ Use tongs to serve veggies
✅ Peel fruit
✅ Pour water carefully
✅ Wipe the table with both hands
Every small task builds coordination, strength, and independence. 💪

Big emotions. Short attention spans. Tough transitions. Sound familiar?
Our Sensory Motor Learning program gives kids the tools to plan, focus, and self-regulate through fun, movement-based occupational therapy.

Every session strengthens the brain’s and body's “thinking muscles” — improving attention, working memory, and impulse control.

“Think it. Plan it. Do it.” — that’s executive function in action!

Reading & Movement Are Tied Together!!
👀 The same eye control that helps a child catch a ball helps them track letters across a page.
Balance and movement literally build reading readiness.
So yes — recess is learning time!
More Recess!

Every leaf, rock, and breeze builds sensory awareness and focus.
Try this mini-adventure:

👀 Play “I Spy” for shapes or colors
💪 Carry a bucket of pinecones

At Brighten Pediatric Therapy, movement is everything — it’s how the brain grows.
Our sensory-motor and energy regulation programs helps your kids focus, stay calm, and connect by strengthening the brain-body link through purposeful play.

From balance beams to scooters to cross-body games — every guided movement helps build a stronger foundation for attention, learning, and confidence.

Because when kids move WITH PURPOSE, they think, feel, and function better.
