The steps before planting- such as collecting soil and materials, preparing pots, handling different textures, making choices and following a sequence- offer opportunities to practise observation, coordination, decision-making and purposeful engagement to our beneficiaries.

By being involved in the process from the very beginning, they get to explore, create, and take an active role in caring for something that will grow over time.

Every throw is an opportunity to practise motor planning, coordination, spatial awareness, force control and timing. What feels automatic to one person may still be a skill someone else has to actively work on.

The task may be ordinary, the learning isn’t.

We often notice what is happening around us through our senses- what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch. But our bodies are also constantly sending us information from the inside. Interoception is our sense of these internal signals. It helps us notice things like hunger, thirst, a full bladder, changes in temperature, pain or a racing heartbeat.

Some children with may not always recognise that they are hungry, thirsty, uncomfortable or tired until the sensation becomes stronger. Others may notice certain internal sensations very intensely. This can make every day experiences a little harder to understand. A child may know that something feels “wrong” without being able to identify what their body is asking for. And importantly, interoception is not the same for every autistic person.

The goal isn’t to assume what a child is experiencing, but to become curious about what their body might be communicating.

Sometimes, care looks like a therapy session. Sometimes, it looks like sitting down for a meal afterwards.

Our meal initiative helps us offer a nutritious meal to our beneficiaries after their sessions, a simple way to extend the care beyond the work we do in the therapy room. For contributing towards our meal initiative, please visit the link in our bio.

“Pack your bag” sounds like one simple instruction. But where do you start? What needs to go in? What goes first? Where will everything fit?

For someone new to learning this skill, packing a bag can involve sequencing, planning, organisation, decision-making and coordination- all within one everyday task. Folding a piece of clothing, deciding where to place it, making space for the next item and remembering what still needs to go in are all little steps towards doing the task independently.

We might only notice the finished bag. But learning happens in all the little steps that get it there. The task may be ordinary, the learning isn’t.

Deep pressure is one form of sensory input that some children with may actively seek. Pressure on the body stimulates receptors in the skin, muscles and joints, providing proprioceptive information about where the body is and how it is moving. For some children, this additional sensory input may feel organising, grounding or comforting. This is one reason activities involving pushing, crawling, squeezing or firm pressure may be appealing to some children.

But sensory needs are individual. Deep pressure is not calming for everyone, and a child’s response can also change depending on the situation, environment and how they are feeling that day. That’s why sensory activities should always be playful, gentle and child-led. We’re not trying to make a child “calm down” or stop a behaviour, we’re paying attention to what their body is communicating and offering support that feels comfortable to them. The goal is not one sensory strategy that works for every child. It’s finding what works for your child.

Playing an instrument gives participants opportunities to listen for sounds and cues, imitate rhythms, coordinate their movements, maintain attention and respond to what they hear. When music is shared with others, it also creates opportunities to practise turn-taking and staying connected to a shared rhythm.

A little jamming can bring a lot of learning along with it. 🥁

“Zip your bag” sounds like one instruction. But how many skills are hiding behind it?

From coordinating both hands and adjusting grip to following the movement visually and planning the next step, zipping involves more than we often realise. For children and adults with developmental disabilities, everyday tasks can become opportunities to practise coordination, motor planning and independence.

Sometimes, what looks like a small task is actually a whole lot of learning. The task may be ordinary, but the learning isn’t.

Visual supports can do more than make routines easier to follow. They can give children a way to access information without having to rely on remembering or interpreting spoken instructions in the moment.

And importantly, the goal isn’t to make a child dependent on visuals. It’s to give them a tool they can use to understand what is happening, anticipate what comes next and act more independently. It’s about making the information easier to access.

An obstacle course is more than a physical challenge. Working through it with a peer creates opportunities to practice communication, coordination, cooperation and attending to another person’s pace. Moving together also means figuring out when to wait, when to support and how to work towards the same goal, skills that matter well beyond the course. And sometimes, making it to the other side is even better when you have someone to celebrate with! 👭🏻
