🦃 Rice Krispy Turkeys: A Fun Fine Motor & Direction-Following Activity! 🦃
A festive treat and a great hands-on learning opportunity!

What You’ll Need: (Recipie here: https://bit.ly/4iioy4b)
• Rice Krispies cereal
• Marshmallows & butter
• Candy corn (feathers)
• Mini pretzel sticks (legs)
• Chocolate chips or small candies (eyes)

Why We Love This Activity:
✨ Strengthens hand and finger muscles through stirring, pressing, and shaping
✨ Built-in sensory play with sticky marshmallows + crunchy cereal
✨ Boosts bilateral coordination while decorating
✨ Supports motor planning & sequencing as kids follow each step
✨ Encourages direction following (“First stir, then scoop!”)
✨ Builds descriptive language (“The candy corn is orange and pointy!”)
✨ Promotes sequencing & retelling when kids explain how they made their turkey

🧑‍🍳 Teen Twist:
Turn it into a “Turkey Top Chef” challenge! Each teen designs, presents, and describes their creation.

The holidays bring joy, excitement… and lots of unpredictability. Family gatherings, travel, and changes in routine can feel overwhelming for many kids—especially those who really rely on structure.

💡 Tips for Families:
• Preview what’s coming: Use a visual schedule or talk through the day ahead.
• Build in sensory breaks: Quiet corners, fidgets, movement, or short walks can help kids reset.
• Encourage communication: Practice simple “feeling words” like “I feel overwhelmed” or “I need a break.”
• Keep routines where you can: Even small anchors—like a consistent bedtime ritual—make a big difference.

🧠 Therapy Connection:
Holiday transitions are a great opportunity to support self-regulation, emotional language, and executive functioning—key focus areas across OT, PT, and ST.
