Occupational Therapy


The primary occupations of infants, toddlers, and young children are playing, learning, and interacting with caregivers and, eventually, their peers. Occupational therapy interventions address developmental milestones such as (but not limited to), facilitating movement to sit, crawl, or walk independently; learning to pay attention and follow simple instructions; developing the ability to eat, drink, wash, and dress independently; learning to cope with disappointment or failure; reducing extraneous environmental stimuli (Sensory Processing Deficits), such as noise for a child who is easily distracted. As well as address turn taking skills, sharing and playing with peers; using toys and materials in both traditional and creative ways; and participating in age appropriate daily routines.  Referenced from AOTA.org
