We love, zigzag lines for so many reasons!

✔️ Improves pre-writing skills
✔️ Strengthens hand control & pencil grip
✔️ Builds visual tracking (eyes moving smoothly)
✔️ Supports bilateral coordination (using both hands together)
✔️ Supports the vestibular system

Pro tip: Start BIG (on the floor or wall) before going small (paper/pencil). Bigger movements help the brain learn the pattern first!

¡Nos encantan las líneas en zigzag por muchas razones!

✔️ Mejora las habilidades previas a la escritura

✔️ Fortalece el control de la mano y el agarre del lápiz

✔️ Construye el seguimiento visual (los ojos se mueven suavemente)

✔️ Apoya la coordinación bilateral (usando ambas manos juntas)

✔️ Apoya el desarrollo vestibular

Consejo profesional: Comience GRANDE (en el suelo o en la pared) antes de ir pequeño (papel/lápiz). ¡Los movimientos más grandes ayudan al cerebro a aprender el patrón primero!

We love yoga for kids because even simple poses can help your child feel more calm, organized, and in control of their body and emotions.

Fun fact: This is my son at 1 years old copying my downward dog and doing it better than me. 😁💪🏾

While there is a ton of talk about W sitting being common, this is not the best position for your child to sit in. It is a red flag when it’s the only position your child uses, it may be a sign they need more support with strength and coordination. The tricky part is knowing when is it too often and is it affecting other areas of development. Do not wait and see until your child is complaining of pain or discomfort to get help.

We are here for you!

Aunque Sentarse con W es común, no es la mejor posición para su hijo. Es algo que debemos corregir especialmente cuando es la única posición que utiliza su hijo, puede ser una señal de que necesitan más apoyo con fuerza y coordinación. La parte complicada es saber cuándo es demasiado frecuente y si afecta a otras áreas del desarrollo. No espere y vea hasta que su hijo se queje de dolor o malestar para obtener ayuda.

¡Estamos aquí para ti!

Did you know we have more than 5 senses?

Our “hidden” 3 other senses (vestibular, Proprioception & interoception) play a major role in regulation and everyday success.

¿Sabías que tenemos más de 5 sentidos?

Nuestros otros 3 sentidos “ocultos” (vestibular, propiocepción e interocepción) juegan un papel importante en la regulación y el éxito cotidiano.

I had the pleasure of working with an amazing teacher. One day, the teacher mention how unclear OT is. While I appreciated her honesty, OT is anything but unclear or uncertain. Do we cover a lot of ground, yes! But there is no uncertainty over here. I think we (OTs) need to get better at explaining what we do. We look at how your body and brain are working together and what’s important for you to do, then we help you do it well. Think life coach meets a scientist. 💫

Drop a 🧠 if you know what OT is & tag your favorite OT account! 💪🏾

Tuve el placer de trabajar con una profesora increíble. Un día, la profesora menciona lo poco claro que es el TO. Aunque aprecié su honestidad, TO es cualquier cosa menos poco claro o incierto. ¿Cubrimos mucho terreno, sí? Pero aquí no hay incertidumbre. Creo que nosotros (los TO) necesitamos mejorar en la explicación de lo que hacemos. Nos fijamos en cómo tu cuerpo y tu cerebro están trabajando juntos y qué es importante que hagas, lueFFgo te ayudamos a hacerlo bien. Piensa cómo en un entrenador de vida conoce a un científico. 💫

¡Deja un 🧠 si sabes lo que es OT y etiqueta tu cuenta de OT favorita! 💪🏾

We love how much neurodiversity has gained more awareness, but what does that actually look like and how to use the terms! Swipe to find out!

Neurodivergent isn’t a label to limit a child—it’s a way to understand them better 🧠💛

When we shift from “fixing” to supporting, everything changes.

We meet your child where they are and help them thrive in their everyday world with you by their side 🌎✨

Nos encanta la cantidad de neurodiversidad que ha ganado más conciencia, ¡pero cómo se ve eso en realidad y cómo usar los términos! ¡Desliza para averiguarlo!

No es una etiqueta para limitar a un niño, es una forma de entenderlos mejor 🧠💛

Cuando cambiamos de “arreglar” a apoyar, todo cambia.

Nos encontramos con tu hijo donde está y lo ayudamos a prosperar en su mundo cotidiano contigo a su lado 🌎
