✨ Knowing Myself: I am Sensory Smart ✨

A 3-day Occupational Therapy holiday programme for children aged 7–10 years old

Children experience a wide range of emotions and energy levels throughout the day — from calm to restless, tired to excited. But do they know what their bodies are trying to tell them?

In this fun and hands-on programme led by Occupational Therapist Akio Lim, children will learn to:

💡 Recognise their body cues and “engine levels” through the 4 Zones of Regulation
🎨 Explore sensory strategies to help them focus and calm down
🧠 Build awareness of their feelings and what their bodies need in different situations

By understanding themselves better, children can learn to manage big feelings, stay focused, and feel more confident throughout their day.

📅 Dates: 25, 27–28 Nov 2025 (3 days)
🕑 Time: 2–5pm

Give your child the tools to understand, regulate, and thrive because knowing yourself is the first step to feeling in control.

The year-end break can be a vulnerable time for our children, as heightened feelings of loneliness or boredom may lead to impulsive decisions. Unlike the past, they are growing up in a more complex environment where boundaries are easily blurred.
As parents, we need to be more attuned and involved than before.
 
What can help:
• Open, non-judgmental check-ins and focusing on understanding their experiences
• Teach digital literacy and healthy boundaries
• Recognise pressures to take part in illegal activities
• Model calm, consistent behaviour

Some of us grew up seeing Dad’s steady side, not his softer one.
He could have been the fixer, the joker, the provider, the protector. This Men’s Mental Health Month, let’s appreciate the dads who showed up and remember that strength can include tears, fears and asking for help.

Toddlers are still wiring their brains to handle big feelings, new rules, and social expectations. Yet so often, we expect them to act like little adults.
And it’s not just a “parenting” thing. Families, relatives, even strangers can unknowingly hold toddlers to impossible standards.

When we pause, adjust our expectations, and see things through a developmental lens, everyone wins: less stress for parents, more space for children to grow into the skills they’ll one day master.

Doctor or dentist visits can feel overwhelming for children with ADHD or autism. Bright lights, new sounds and unfamiliar faces - what feels routine to others can be distressing for them. Neurodivergent children need more preparation, understanding and support to feel safe in these settings.

In a typical primary school with 1,500 pupils, around 10 may be on the autism spectrum, shared our clinician Lin Jiayong. That’s at least one or two pupils in every class who may also show traits of ADHD or specific learning disorders like dyslexia.

If your teen seems distant, it doesn’t mean you’ve lost them.
They’re learning to be more assertive, seeking belonging with friends, and wanting their voice to be heard.
By staying curious, open, and connected, you give them the safe space they need to grow into confident and respectful adults.

Have you heard of Brain Gym?
Brain Gym activities are designed to improve cognitive functions such as focus, attention, memory, and coordination, and it’s fun for both young and old. I introduced Brain Gym during our screen-free time with my sons and my grandma. The boys were thrilled to take on this challenge, and we all enjoyed the bonding. Three generations, one activity, and simple to set up!
 
What other activities do you do for screen-free time with your family? Let me know in the comments!

On Children’s Day, we celebrate joy and innocence.
But it’s also a reminder: our children deserve safety, not silence.
Bullying is not new. What matters is how seriously we respond as parents. It’s not about “kids being kids” but it’s about protecting, guiding, and advocating for them.
Whether your child is being bullied, or has hurt others, knowing the right steps helps you stay calm and partnership with the school can make all the difference.

Today, let’s celebrate children by keeping them safe, seen, and heard.

Apart from the bop-worthy songs (yes, Golden 🎶), the movie leaves kids with a powerful message: 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳.

For kids around 6 & above, this resonates. At this age, they compare themselves to friends and want to fit in. In today’s digital era, wanting to look like or be well-received like influencers is normalised. The film reminds them: you don’t need to hide parts of yourself to belong.
So while they’re busy singing along, they’re also learning one of life’s most important truths. ✨
