🧩 More Than Just a Puzzle!

Puzzles are a favorite in our OT sessions — and for good reason!

They help kids build:
✋ Fine motor strength and coordination
🧠 Problem-solving and planning skills
👀 Visual perception
💬 Communication and turn-taking

Plus, they’re fun and rewarding! Whether it’s matching shapes, finding edges, or fitting that last piece in place, puzzles help our kiddos grow in so many ways. 💪🧠💙

Meet Jason! 😁
He’s been working hard on his functional mobility—both in and out of his wheelchair—as well as daily tasks like dressing and building overall strength.

Here’s why Occupational Therapy (OT) plays such a crucial role:

Adaptive equipment empowers people to complete everyday tasks more independently, boosting their quality of life and sense of autonomy. Occupational therapists help incorporate tools like sock aides, shoe horns, reachers, button hooks, and modified utensils into daily routines.

For Jason, using a sock aide was a game changer—it helped him reach his goal of independently dressing his lower body. We’re so proud of his dedication and this amazing accomplishment!

👅 Tongue Mobility Matters!

Did you know that limited tongue movement can affect more than just speech? It can also impact:
🍽️ Eating & swallowing
🍼 Breast or bottle feeding
🗣️ Sound production (like “L,” “R,” “T,” and “S”)
💤 Even sleep and oral hygiene!

If your child has trouble sticking out their tongue, moving it side to side, or making certain sounds, speech therapy can help!

🧠 Our speech-language pathologists assess tongue strength, coordination, and range of motion—then create fun, personalized exercises to support better mobility and communication.

💬 Better tongue mobility = clearer speech and improved feeding!

Concerned about your child’s tongue movement? Reach out today—we’re here to help! 💙
