Congrats to Izzy, who graduated from Occupational Therapy with Miss Cailey last week! He met his goals for fine motor skills and emotional regulation, and came dressed in style as Sonic to celebrate! Great work!

Squigz are such a fun toy! They can be used to target tons of goals across disciplines, but today we wanted to highlight how to use them for gross motor goals in PT!

1. Practice squatting by scattering the Squigz around the floor and encourage your child to find Squigz of certain colors then stick them to a mirror.
2. Challenge your child's core and balance by pushing and pulling Squigz while seated criss-cross on a platform swing.
3. Work on coordination and reflex integration by positioning your child on all 4's and placing Squigz underneath them. They will need to look down to grab a Squig then look up to stick it on a surface.
4. If you have a higher suction-friendly surface, practice vertical jumping to knock off or stick on Squigz.
5. Practice crossing midline by having your child straddle sit on a peanut ball next to your suction-friendly surface.
