😵‍💫ALL ABOUT THE VESTIBULAR SYSTEM! 🧠
⠀
October is Sensory Processing Awareness Month! To help spread awareness, I am sharing a series of graphics about the 8 sensory systems. ⠀

⠀
Let's talk all about the vestibular system.
⠀
The vestibular system is located in the inner ear and helps you detect changes in balance and body orientation. Are you sitting, standing, lying down, upside down, spinning, standing still, etc? It is often referred to as the internal GPS system of your body.⠀
⠀
You'll notice a list of seeking behaviors and challenges. These are things to look for in your child's behavior or responses. If you ever have questions about your child's development, talk to their doctor and ask for an Occupational Therapy evaluation. This list is not meant to diagnose in any way; it is for educational purposes only.
⠀
You may notice that your child seems to "seek" out vestibular input or "avoid" it. You may notice both responses depending on the type of vestibular input. You may also see this referred to as hyper-sensitive (avoiding) or hypo-sensitive (seeking) behaviors. ⠀
Some ways to address vestibular challenges include: ⠀
⠀
- Using a ball chair or wiggle cushion for seated activities ⠀
- Use movement breaks ⠀
- Jumping on a trampoline ⠀
- Swinging ⠀
- Riding a bike ⠀
- Yoga poses ⠀
- Using a scooter board ⠀
- Sit and spin chairs ⠀
- Rolling down a hill ⠀
- Balance beams or lines⠀
- Jumping rope ⠀

Left-right discrimination refers to the ability to distinguish between left and right sides of the body or directions in space. When someone has difficulty with left-right discrimination, it can impact their ability to perform daily tasks that require spatial awareness or directional understanding. Here are some common ways this challenge presents itself in daily life:

Dressing-Difficulty distinguishing the left and right shoe or arm when putting on clothing. This may lead to putting shoes on the wrong feet or struggling to orient clothing correctly, such as sleeves or pant legs.

Driving or Navigation-When driving or walking, the individual may have trouble following verbal directions, such as "turn left" or "turn right." They may pause or hesitate to figure out which way to go, potentially leading to missed turns or disorientation in familiar settings.

Handwriting and Reading- Left-right confusion can impact writing direction. For example, a child may write letters backward (like "b" instead of "d") or have difficulty reading because they struggle with tracking from left to right across a page.

Using Utensils- Confusion when determining which hand to use for holding utensils, tools, or objects in specific tasks, such as using a fork with the left hand while cutting with the right.

Sports and Physical Activities- Difficulty following instructions that involve left-right movements, such as "step with your right foot" or "swing with your left hand." This can make it harder to follow choreography in dance or play sports that require coordinated movements.

Following Verbal Instructions- When given directions such as "open the door on the left," a person with left-right discrimination difficulties might hesitate or open the door on the right instead.

Personal Care Tasks- Tasks like brushing teeth or applying deodorant can be challenging when remembering which side has already been done, leading to repeating the task on one side or skipping the other.

Tying Shoes- Tying shoes involves coordinated movements that require understanding which lace goes on the left or right. Left-right confusion can make shoe tying a difficult task.

Typing or Keyboard Use- Individuals may struggle to find the correct letters on the left or right side of the keyboard, slowing down their typing speed.

These difficulties can be mild or more significant, depending on the individual. Occupational therapy and other interventions often focus on strengthening spatial awareness and left-right discrimination to support daily functioning.

Comment “HAND” to get our list of tools to improve hand strength for handwriting…

Do these tools really help with Handwriting development?! Toys that build hand strength absolutely do!

In fact, using toys to build hand strength is one of the most helpful because the kids find it fun, playful and they won’t even realize they are “working” their hand strength to support their learning development.

If a child does not have the hand strength needed to write, you may notice the following:

👋Child writes with very little pencil pressure
👋Hands tire easily
👋Shakes hands out after writing
👋Can’t write for long periods of time
👋May try to switch hands because the other isn’t strong enough

There are many other signs as well if a child needs more hand strength development.

If your child or students struggle with pencil grip, you can use several toys and items to help strengthen the muscles of the hands, wrists and fingers to support their handwriting development.

To check out the full list of hand strength tools we use, comment “HAND” and we’ll send you the link.
