🧠✨ What is proprioception?

Proprioception is your child’s body awareness. It’s how their body knows where it is in space without looking!

It helps with things like:
✏️ How hard to press with a pencil
🤗 How tight to hug
🏃‍♂️ Moving safely, smoothly, and confidently

If a child has trouble with proprioceptive input, you might notice:
🚧 Crashing into people or furniture
⚖️ Using too much or too little force
🔄 Constant movement or rough play
🪑 Difficulty sitting still or staying regulated

💙 Here’s the important part:
This isn’t bad behavior — it’s often your child’s nervous system asking for more input to feel calm and organized.

🧩 How OT helps:
Occupational therapy uses purposeful movement (pushing, pulling, climbing, jumping, heavy work) to help improve body awareness, regulation, and confidence in everyday activities.

If you’re reading this thinking “That sounds like my child,” trust your instincts, support can make a big difference. 💫

👶 Does your baby always turn their head one way?
Or seem stiff, uncomfortable, or frustrated during tummy time, feeding, or sleep?

This may be torticollis — a common condition where tight muscles in the neck (and often the body) limit movement and alignment.

When left untreated, torticollis can affect:
• Head shape
• Posture and symmetry
• Rolling, sitting, crawling, and other milestones
• Overall comfort and ease of movement

✨ The good news? Early therapy is a game-changer. ✨
The sooner we address tension and movement patterns, the easier it is for babies to:
✔️ Move more freely
✔️ Build balanced strength
✔️ Progress through milestones with confidence
✔️ Feel more comfortable in their little bodies

At Kids First Pediatric Therapy, we take a whole-body, gentle approach to support your baby’s movement and development — with no stress and lots of encouragement 💛

As we wrap up this year, our hearts are full. 💙

We’ve watched our kids grow, try new things, overcome hard moments, and celebrate big wins— sometimes ones that seemed impossible at first.

To our incredible kids: we are SO proud of you.
To our families: thank you for trusting us.
To our therapists: your dedication, patience, and love make all the difference every single day.

This year reminded us why we do what we do— and we wouldn’t trade it for anything. Here’s to growth, progress, and so many victories, big and small. ✨

This Christmas season, we’re taking a moment to reflect on a year full of growth, progress, and so many proud moments with our incredible kids and therapists. 💙

✨ We are beyond thankful for the trust our families place in us and for a team that shows up every day with patience, passion, and big hearts.

Our cups are full… and yes, probably a little coffee-dependent too ☕😉

Merry Christmas from all of us at Kids First!

✨ W-Sitting: What Parents Should Know! ✨
W-sitting is a common posture children use during play — but when it becomes a frequent habit, it can limit core strength, reduce trunk rotation, and place extra stress on the hips and knees. Our pediatric PT team keeps an eye on this posture to support healthy, confident movement as kids grow. 💛

Instead of saying “Don’t W-sit,” try gently redirecting to positions like criss-cross sitting, long sitting, or side sitting. These simple alternatives help build strong cores, better balance, and improved coordination — all through play! 🌈🧸

If your child prefers W-sitting often, we can help uncover the why and support them with fun, play-based PT strategies tailored to their needs.

💙 Have questions about your child’s posture or development? Send us a message — our team is here for you!

This season is all about slowing down, sharing kindness, and creating the memories our little ones will carry forever. 💛✨
Take a moment to remember those who may need a little extra kindness and patience this season — especially our children navigating sensory needs, developmental milestones, and big emotions.

At Kids First, we see every day how pediatric OT, PT, and speech therapies help our kids build the skills that make these moments a little easier and a lot more joyful. We’re so proud to be a part of their journey and to support families through the holidays and beyond. 🎄💚

Wishing your family a season filled with love, understanding, and meaningful moments!

✨ Therapy Tip Tuesday! ✨

Here’s an easy at-home fine-motor activity your little one will LOVE this holiday season: sticker sorting!
Grab any festive stickers and have your child sort by color, size, or shape. This builds pincer grasp, visual motor skills, finger strength, and attention — all while keeping them entertained. 🎄🎁

Our Kids First therapists love tools that turn playtime into progress. 💛
Tell us how your kiddo did if you try this at home!

✨ Therapy Tip Thursday!

Want to strengthen your child’s fine motor skills at home? 💪

📌Try the “Tongs & Pom-Poms” game! Using kid-safe tongs builds hand strength, coordination, and prepares little hands for writing and everyday self-help skills.

Make it fun: sort by color, race the clock, create patterns, or even hide objects around the house for a mini treasure hunt! It’s quick, easy, and such a great way to support development through play.

Kids First OT's loves these simple at-home wins! 💙
