Aoife Costello on Instagram: "Using our new fidget tubes to learn dressing skills 👕👖👗  This is a lovely way to make dressing skills fun.  I attached two of our new light tube fidgets together (6 in every set).   💡 Let your child imitate and copy you💡  There are SO many skills and sequences involved in dressing from balance, crossing the midline, bilateral coordination and so much more (see reel). Children learn best from imitation and copying, this is more motivational than encouraging your child to pull on and off their top, trousers etc, I’ve been doing this in the clinic for the past few weeks, and it’s been greatly enjoyed by so many kids who struggle with dressing and undressing skills. They are learning all the skills necessary but in a much more fun and motivational way, always Dressing Skills Occupational Therapy, Occupational Therapy Dressing Activities, Dressing Activities Occupational Therapy, Adl Activities For Kids, Adl Activity For Kids, Visual Perception Activities Occupational Therapy, Adls Activities, Fine Motor Coordination Activities, Midline Crossing Activities

Cindy @ Your Kids OT ✏️🍪🇦🇺🐕 on Instagram: "BILATERAL COORDINATION ACTIVITIES USING PLASTIC RINGS  Welcome to the little closet room that I can use at a school that I go to! I had a cancellation so had a few minutes to record some of the activities we are doing this week with plastic rings.   Bilateral coordination is the ability to use the left and right sides of the body in a coordinated way. Sometimes we use both sides simultaneously, sometimes one is dominant and the other side helps, sometimes we coordinate the upper body with the lower body.  Crossing the midline is a key skill that helps us to see if the left and right sides of the body are integrated. Can the left hand move to the right side of the body without compensation or does the child switch hands in the middle?
