As a school based pediatric occupational therapist, my job is to help students achieve their educational goals. Often my focus is improving handwriting.

As you may know, if you have been around this blog for very long, the kids’ crafts that I like the most are those that lead to therapeutic play once completed.

Even preschoolers can learn to match numbers or colors…and what a fun way to learn those skills. What makes this craft so special is that when it is completed it brings the whole family together. And what could really be more important than that?
