Supporting Sensory and Motor Milestones
Presented by Kim Strickland, OTR, ATP, MS
Join us in this workshop where we will highlight key sensory and motor milestones achieved between the ages of 3 and 6 for children.
Attendees will discover a range of activities designed to foster sensory and motor development and will learn how to recognize signs that a child might need additional support to reach these important milestones.
This presentation will equip caregivers and providers with a range of low-cost or free activities designed to support sensory and motor development in children, applicable across home, school, and community settings. Participants will gain insights on how to identify children who may be lagging in their development and learn when early intervention is needed to ensure these children can fully engage in all aspects of their lives.
