Tumble n' Dots

Tumble n' Dots Pediatric Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, and Feeding Therapy. Family-centered care in Irvine.

Tumble N’ Dots is a dynamic and progressive pediatric therapy clinic that has been servicing children in and around Orange County since 2008. We cater to the needs of children primarily from pre-school to 12 years of age with a wide range of neurological, biological, and developmental disabilities. We specialize and have earned recognition for our treatment of children with ADD/ADHD, Sensory Processing Dysfunctions (SPD), feeding, and Autistic Spectrum Disorders. Our office provides a multitude of treatment modalities including sensory integration therapy, fine and gross motor therapy, handwriting programs, movement based social skill groups, and creative arts group classes. Advanced assessment tools, observations in multiple settings, and parents interviews are used to evaluate your child’s level or performance and skills. We use the results of our assessments to build an individualized program that supports your child’s needs and provide the family with strategies that can be done at home and in the community. Our goal is to help with your child’s developmental needs and support families and caregivers by providing consultation and resources. Every treatment session is designed to meet the individual needs of your child and to ensure that he/she meets his/her maximum potential. At Tumble N’ Dots, your child becomes our child and their success is our success. We take pride in offering a nurturing and caring environment where you and your child will feel safe and secure to explore, take risks, and overcome challenges. We believe in collaborating with your child’s teachers, pediatrician, and other professionals to ensure the best integrated care.

💡What to Know Wednesday💡 Let's talk about Letter Formation...

Letter formation is not just about your child writing letters, it’s about building the foundations first. Foundations for letter formation included strong hands, stable shoulders, body awareness, and visual-motor skills.

If writing letters is hard for your child, it doesn’t mean they aren’t trying, it just means their body needs more support. Before pencils, we need play: climbing, coloring, building, squeezing, drawing, and exploring. These skills lay the groundwork for confident writing later on!

We're still ringing in the New Year with fine motor fun and themed sensory bins 🎆🎉The kiddos used pipettes and water colors to make their very own fireworks craft. We also used numbers hidden in party streamers as a sensory bin filler!

Our OTs are using DIY party poppers as a great way to practice cause and effect play! All you need are toilet paper rolls, pom poms, and a balloon to try this activity with your kiddo 🎉

💡It's What to Know Wednesday💡 Let's talk about messy play...

Messy play isn’t just about making a mess, it’s about the skills being built while playing in the mess. Messy play helps little hands and bodies learn in powerful ways. Squishing, pouring, smearing, and exploring different textures supports fine motor development, sensory processing, problem-solving, and emotional regulation. It also gives kids a safe way to explore new sensations at their own pace with no pressure, just play!

If messes are hard for you (or your child!), start small. Use a cookie sheet, do it outside, or offer tools like spoons and brushes. There’s no “right” way—watch your child, follow their lead, and remember: progress matters more than perfection!

The connections and bonds the kiddos make throughout our groups are some of the sweetest highlights! Group settings allows us to integrate social skills and positive peer play as part of the therapeutic experience. Big smiles and hugs are a bonus to the process 😁

Our Mindful MasterChefs ended the holiday session with making their very own cake pops ❄️🧁 Crumbling and rolling the cake into balls supported tactile tolerance, sequencing, and fine motor skills. We also took time to reflect on all we learned this session and celebrated all the teamwork we shared along the way!

Our kiddos are having so much fun with this menorah food craft 🕎 💙 There are so many ways to "grade up" or "grade down" food crafts to fit the strengths of any kiddo. With this craft, you can use pre-sliced bananas or have your child peel and cut the banana themselves. By grading activities up or down, your child can still engage in food exploration and challenge their fine motor skills, all while feeling the accomplishment of completing their craft!
