5 Gross Motor Therapy Toys




The Working Therapist: Providing Helpful Ideas for Pediatric Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapy show

Summary: Haden and fellow therapist, Kjirsti Myles, just returned from their annual trip to the Toy Fair. For five days they spend more than 12 hours a day looking, experimenting, and testing every new toy available. But this duo is not looking for toys, they are looking for ideas. As Haden always says, "It's not the toy, it's what you can get from the toy." In this episode, Haden and Kjirsti feature 5 new toys that are useful for gross motor therapy sessions. They explore how Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapists can use these toys for effective Cross-discipline therapy.
