πΏ Well I'm halfway through my first term and i wanted to share a video i recently created for my Occupational Therapy course as part of my WFOT (World Federation of Occupational Therapists) module, and I wanted to share it with you because of course one on my favourite occupations is Forest School! I love how Occupational Therapy connects beautifully with Forest School philosophy.
In Occupational Therapy, occupation means the meaningful activities that people do every day β the things that give us purpose, joy, and connection. Forest School offers rich opportunities for occupation: from building dens and exploring nature, to developing confidence, resilience, and a sense of belonging.
Both OT and Forest School celebrate meaningful engagement, wellbeing, and the power of nature to support growth π±
I hope you enjoy!
