We put our OTs and speech therapists to the ultimate sensory test! 🙈
Can they guess the most popular games and activities we use in the clinic using ONLY touch? 🤪 Check out the answer key below to learn more about the benefits of each activity.
🔑 The Answer Key:
🐷 Coin Pig: Great for building pencil grip strength, practicing picking up small objects, asking for turns, and talking back and forth.
🧠 What’s in Ned’s Head: Helps kids explore textures using touch, build descriptive words, and practice target speech sounds in a fun, silly way.
🦔 Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog: Perfect for developing finger strength for writing, hand-eye coordination, learning early words, and practicing colors and counting.
🍵 Teacup Pile-Up: Awesome for steady hands, balance, visual problem-solving, following step-by-step directions, and learning location words (like ‘on top’ or ‘under’).
🟣 Superflex Bingo: Helps kids manage big feelings, practice flexible thinking, understand others’ perspectives, and build confident conversation skills.
🚙 Service Station Parking Garage: Great for reaching and arm movement, using both hands together across the body, following directions, and sparking creative storytelling.
🏠 Wooden Doorbell House: Builds hand and finger precision (like turning keys!), teaches cause-and-effect, encourages polite greetings, and sharpens listening skills.
🐿️ The Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game: Boosts hand strength for using utensils and scissors, helps with sorting and matching, and practices turn-taking and full sentences.
