WFOT Congress in 🇹🇭✨

Super excited to have had our e-poster featured 🙏🏻👏🏻

Connecting with occupational therapists from across the globe — clinicians, researchers, educators — was more than networking. It was a reminder that our profession is constantly evolving, expanding, and re-imagining what participation truly means for the people and communities we serve.

The conversations sparked ideas. The ideas sparked collaborations. And the collaborations? They opened doors I didn’t even know were there. 🚪✨

From research possibilities to cross-country partnerships, this experience stretched my thinking beyond borders, and that’s the magic of global congresses. You go to share your work… and you leave with a bigger vision.

So who knows what the future holds? Maybe new studies. Maybe international projects. Maybe something completely unexpected.

But one thing is certain, when passion meets opportunity, growth is inevitable. 💫

Inspiring change, innovating futures!🥹✨

Grateful. Inspired. And already dreaming bigger.

👄✏️ When children need to put things in their mouth

For some children, mouthing objects is not a habit to stop —
it’s a sensory need to understand and regulate their body.

Providing safe oral sensory input in the classroom can:
• help meet sensory needs in an appropriate way
• support attention and concentration 🧠
• reduce chewing on unsafe objects
• improve engagement in table-top tasks

When the nervous system feels organised, the brain is more available for learning.

Supporting sensory needs doesn’t distract from learning.
It supports it 🤍

Save this for classrooms and parents who want to understand the why behind the behaviour.

Learning at 1 year old doesn’t look like worksheets or structured tasks 🤍

It happens through play, repetition, connection and everyday moments.

From sounds around the house 🔔
to simple emotions 😊😴
first opposites ⬆️⬇️
movement and sensory play 🤲
and little helper moments 🧹

These early concepts support:
• language development
• problem solving
• emotional awareness
• movement and coordination
• independence

And the best part?
You’re already doing most of this — just by being present.

Your child’s swimsuit colour matters more than you think 👀💦

In water, not all colours are equally visible.
Some shades blend into the pool or sea within seconds, especially with movement, splashing, shadows or low light.

Bright, high-contrast colours (like neon pink, orange, yellow or bright green) remain visible for longer — making it easier for parents, lifeguards and adults to spot a child quickly.

So what does this mean in real life?
A child who is tired, underwater, or not moving much can become harder to see if their swimsuit blends into the background. Visibility buys time — and time matters.

This isn’t about fear.
It’s about informed choices, added safety and peace of mind.

Save this for your upcoming summer purchases 🤍.

LEGO play on a vibration board 🧩✨

While it may look like simple play, this activity supports so many important skills at the same time.
The vibration gives the body extra sensory input, which can help children feel more grounded, organised and focused.

As children build with LEGO, they strengthen their fingers and hands, improve coordination between both sides of the body, and practice planning what comes next. Giving the body sensory input while the hands are working often makes it easier for children to stay calm, engaged and confident in what they’re doing 🤍

At Occupational Therapy, we use play like this to support regulation, concentration and everyday skills — because learning happens best through meaningful, joyful play.

🖤 Learning through movement, trust and the body

During this session, we explored gentle swinging while reducing visual input. When vision is limited, the body naturally starts to rely more on its internal senses — how the muscles move, how the body is positioned in space, and how balance is maintained.

Through this kind of activity, children learn to:
• feel and understand their body better
• improve balance and core strength
• organise their sensory system
• build confidence and trust in their movement

It may look simple, but experiences like this help children feel more secure, calm and regulated, which later supports attention, coordination and everyday participation — at school, at play and at home.

Sometimes, when we quiet one sense, others get the chance to grow 🤍

Today's parents’ seminar was a powerful reminder that behaviour is communication — and when we slow down to understand why a child behaves the way they do, real change begins.✨

Together with Montessori Training Centre – A Child’s Workshop Kindergarten and Charisma Special Education, we explored:
• what sits beneath challenging behaviour
• the role of sensory processing, emotional regulation, and development
• practical ways parents and educators can respond with clarity, consistency, and connection

The discussion, questions, and shared experiences highlighted one key message: children do well when they can — and adults play a vital role in creating the conditions for success. Thank you to all the parents who joined us with openness and curiosity, and to our collaborators for their shared vision and commitment to supporting children holistically. 🙏🏻

When professionals and families work together, children feel safer, understood, and more capable of thriving — at home, at school, and in life. 🫶🏼
