OTPlan

“What more can we do at home to work on this skill?” is a very common question I heard throughout the years working as a pediatric occupational therapist in private and school-based settings.

Now, in addition to referring caregivers to OTPlan for activity ideas to do at home, sending a home program, or just verbally sharing ideas, I can send a box that includes all the materials and plans needed to promote specific developmental skills.

When creating Skill in a Box, one of my main goals was to help parents and educators understand the importance of looking at the child as a whole. Utilizing a bottom-up approach and the concepts of the Learning Pyramid theory, I designed these boxes so parents can start supporting their children developmental skills in sequential order, strengthening the underlying skills, and building their child’s success, one box at a time.
