This week our staff received a gait trainer by Levity that we are able to trial with our kiddos! We have been learning about different devices to assist with independence with our kids and keeping up with the latest education and research. We can’t wait to trial different equipment in the future!

Therapy Tip Tuesday!

From wall activities to standing easels, vertical play is more than just fun — it’s functional! 💪

✅ Builds shoulder & core strength
✅ Encourages proper wrist positioning
✅ Boosts visual tracking & eye-hand coordination
✅ Supports handwriting and fine motor development

Incorporating vertical surfaces into play helps kids build the foundational skills they need to thrive in everyday activities! 🎨🧩✍️

Therapy tip Tuesday!

Does your little one walk on their toes? Do they trip and fall often? Try out this activity! The goal is to activate the muscles on the front of the leg to assist with achieving a heel strike vs. up on toes or clearing the foot when walking! Have your child tap a cone or elevated surface with their heel!

Our therapist also added some ankle weights, great for adding increased input through the feet!

If your child has difficulty with this activity, click the link in bio to schedule an appointment with one of our expert therapists.

Looking for some fun weekend activities? Try this one from our very own, Alexa!

She worked on self-care skills during play in OT this week. You can easily replicate this at home following these steps:

1. Add fluffy soap (the more the better!)
2. Lather up with a sponge and water
3. Brush your teeth and your tongue
4. Rinse off. If you don’t like water, try placing a dry towel over your face so the water does not get into your eyes.
5. Dry off with a warm towel.

For more tips and tricks to assist with self care tasks, schedule an appointment with one of our expert occupational therapists.
