Here’s to 2026, may it be the year your kids sleep, eat something that isn’t beige, and let us drink our coffee while it’s still warm. ✨🙃

We’re heading into the new year feeling grateful, hopeful, and honestly just excited for some good change. New routines, new ideas, and a lot more of the “we’re figuring it out together” energy that makes this community so special.

And since we basically feel like your internet OT friends at this point… we want to know:

What do you want to see from us in 2025?
More sensory hacks?
More feeding help?
More mom humor to keep us all alive?
More activities to keep your toddler from climbing the walls?

Tell us in the comments, we genuinely use your ideas.

Here’s to a calmer, funnier, more predictable year (manifesting ✨). Happy New Year, friends. 🥂💛

New Year’s Eve can be a lot: loud noises, bright flashes, and unpredictable moments that turn into sensory overload fast. If your child struggles with fireworks, here are a few easy, at-home things you can use to help tonight feel calmer:

• Headphones soften the volume and give them control.
• Sunglasses help with bright flashes and reduce visual overwhelm.
• A favorite blanket or hoodie adds deep pressure and comfort.
• Crunchy or chewy snacks give grounding oral input before (and during) fireworks.
• Their comfort item creates familiarity when everything else feels chaotic.

And remember: watching from inside the house, from the car, or skipping fireworks altogether is a perfectly valid option. Your child’s comfort always matters more than the tradition. 🤍✨

If you need quick, sensory-friendly ideas for making tonight easier, just DM us, we’re here for you.

Happy Holidays to the families who show up with patience, persistence, and so much love.

We see all the invisible work you do: the preparation, the emotional coaching, the sensory-friendly adjustments, the flexibility, and the advocacy.

Your children are growing in beautiful ways because of the care you pour into them daily.

Today, we hope you get to slow down, savor the little moments, and enjoy the magic in whatever form it arrives.

Thank you for letting us be a part of your child’s journey this year. It’s an honor we hold close.

Wishing you peace, comfort, and a truly joyful holiday. 🎄🤍

Day 3 of our OT Advent Calendar! 🍓✨

Today’s activity is all about building real-life skills in a fun, low-pressure way. When your child slices soft fruit, they’re practicing bilateral coordination, one hand holding steady while the other works the knife, which is the exact foundation they’ll use at mealtimes.

Threading the fruit onto skewers strengthens fine motor precision and hand-eye coordination as they line everything up just right. And if you add a simple pattern to follow, they’re also working on sequencing and visual perception without even realizing it.

Plus, fresh fruit gives tons of tactile sensory input, and presenting it as a “build-your-own skewer” makes exploring new textures a whole lot less intimidating for hesitant eaters.

Day 2 might look like cute little paint dots… but it’s actually big work for tiny hands.

Q-tip dotting builds tripod grasp, improves hand-eye coordination, teaches pressure control, and even helps calm busy nervous systems, all in one simple activity.

If you want today’s instructions sent to you, DM us “DAY 2.” 🎄✨

Day 2 of our OT Advent Calendar! ❄️

Today’s activity looks cute and simple, but it secretly does so much for your child’s hands and focus. Using a Q-tip to make little paint dots builds the exact finger strength and control kids need for handwriting later on.

Every dot they make strengthens those tiny hand muscles, improves hand-eye coordination, and helps them learn how to press “just enough” (too hard bends the Q-tip, too light won’t leave a mark). That same pressure control is what helps them manage pencil pressure when they write.

And the best part? The repetitive dotting is naturally calming for many kids, it’s organizing, soothing, and gives their nervous system a little reset.

If you want the full instructions for today’s activity, DM us “DAY 2” and we’ll send it right to you.
