🧡 Inclusivity on Halloween 🎃

We’ve been practicing Trick-or-Treating with our kiddos all week, and it’s been pure magic watching their excitement grow! ✨

As families get ready for the big night, here are a few simple ways to help make Halloween more inclusive for all children:

💬 For our AAC users, take time to model and practice common Trick-or-Treat phrases ahead of time — it helps build confidence and independence.

⏰ Encourage your child to give others a little extra time to respond — everyone communicates in their own wonderful way!

🎃 And most of all, celebrate each moment of joy, connection, and creativity this season brings.

A little patience, understanding, and kindness go a long way in making Halloween a treat for everyone! 🍬🕸️

A small moment of patience and understanding can make a big difference.

Here’s to a fun, safe, and inclusive Halloween for all our little ghosts and goblins!

It’s Therapy Thursday!

And this week’s magic moment comes from one of our friends who came dressed as a wizard! 🪄

Together, we played with marble runs to work on:
✨ Attention and focus
🖐️ Fine motor manipulation
⚖️ Force calibration
🧠 Problem solving and cause-and-effect
💪 Postural control for sitting

A little Halloween imagination can turn therapy into something truly spellbinding! 🎃💫

It’s planting day at DTA Winston-Salem! 🌼

Ms. Allyn’s tip of the day: “Pinch the base and separate it so the plant can accept the new soil"

Kind of like therapy... sometimes you have to dig deep, make space, and let growth take root. 😉

Proof that not everything in October—or in life—has to be scary!

Take a refreshing break from fear and enjoy this precious moment of learning 👟

What you’re seeing is our step-by-step shoe-tying chart! Each visual and checkmark helps kids master the single-loop method — building fine-motor coordination, focus, and confidence one step at a time.

It’s not just about tying shoes… it’s about learning independence in the most encouraging way possible

🍂✨ Fall is here, and it’s the perfect time to bring therapy goals to life at home! ✨🍂

At DTA, we know that progress doesn’t stop when the session ends. That’s why we’ve put together a Fall Bucket List filled with cozy, seasonal activities that double as fun ways to practice speech and occupational therapy skills. 🎃🍁🍎☕

From carving pumpkins to making hot chocolate, these activities encourage carryover, helping kids apply what they learn in therapy to everyday life. 💪💬✍️

Check out our ideas below and see how easy (and festive!) it can be to support your kiddo’s growth this fall. 🍂❤️

🌟 Meet Jessica! 🌟

We are so excited to welcome one of the newest members of our DTA family — Ms. Jessica, an Occupational Therapist at our Winston Salem clinic!

Jessica has already been a huge hit with families, bringing her unique blend of personality, talent, and skill to the Triad community.

Bilingual and an athlete at heart, she’s passionate about dance, soccer, and nature — weaving those interests into fun, creative therapy sessions that truly connect with her kiddos.

In the photos, you’ll see Jessica in action, mixing it up during a feeding therapy session.

Whether she’s kicking up the pace or slowing things down, Jessica always follows the comfort and needs of each child, making therapy both engaging and impactful.
We can’t wait to see all of the cool and creative things Jessica will bring to our Winston Salem team! 💙

Bee all you can bee with the help of an OT! 🐝

Just helping a kiddo make the most of the new school year with some helpful handwriting tips!

Our friend has difficulty holding a pencil using a functional tripod grasp, so their therapist introduced a simple yet effective tool to encourage greater finger flexion and precision during tracing and writing activities.

We love a small tool with a big impact and we always aim to create strategies that are easy to carry over at home.

This simple elastic band grip promotes a more functional and efficient grasp, which supports fine motor development and improves handwriting skills.

There are so many creative ways our therapists make developing important skills more accessible at home!
