Fine Motor Occupational Therapy 

 

Many children struggle with developing age-appropriate pen and paper skills needed in the classroom. As a pediatric Occupational Therapist, I have years of experience working with children to improve their written output skills in terms of letter formation (printing or cursive), printing organization (spacing, line placement) and written productivity (ability to communicate thoughts and ideas through printing).

Handwriting a complex process, which is why at Bumblebee OT, your Occupational Therapist use a comprehensive approach to improve children’s  fine motor development, which includes:

  • Postural stability and core control.
  • Pencil grasp efficiency.
  • Visual-perceptual and visual motor-integration skills.
