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 Proce

ssing 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.

Crossing the midline—when a child moves one hand or foot across their body’s center line—is essential for coordination and brain development. This action supports tasks like reading, writing, and walking, as it encourages integration between the two hemispheres of the brain. Activities like drawing shapes, reaching across the body to touch objects, and games like “touch the opposite knee” all encourage midline crossing, enhancing a child’s motor skills and cognitive abilities.

The vestibular system plays a crucial role in a child’s balance and coordination. Activities like swinging, spinning, or rocking stimulate the inner ear, which helps with body awareness and motor planning. For children with vestibular sensitivities, these activities can be adjusted to match their comfort levels—whether through gentle rocking or controlled spinning. These vestibular exercises are not just fun; they are essential for improving overall body coordination and helping children feel grounded and focused.

Building fine motor skills helps children gain control over their hand movements, which is essential for tasks like writing, eating, and dressing. Activities like using tweezers to pick up pom-poms, lacing beads, and pinching or rolling playdough help strengthen small hand muscles and improve finger coordination. Scissor practice with strips and sticker play also encourage finger isolation and grip development. These activities are not only effective but also fun, helping kids gain confidence while improving their motor abilities.
