The Importance of Play, Self-Care Routines, Sensorimotor Activities, and Social Participation for Children with Down Syndrome
This presentation will focus on how occupational therapy skills and speech-language therapy skills can both be addressed using play, self-care routines, sensorimotor activities, and social participation. We will review the sensorimotor and communication characteristics of children with Down Syndrome and provide a framework for developing their skills. We will also provide examples of activities that can be successfully implemented in the home setting.
