An OT favorite this holiday season! We have been busy making TONS of salt dough ornaments here at KTT. This fun craft can be used at home or in therapy to support so many skills! ~ hand strength ~ sequencing ~ messy play ~ bilateral coordination

Try this fun and easy recipe at home!
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup salt
1/3 cup water (add as needed)
Mix all ingredients in a bowl, stirring with a spoon and progressing to kneading by hand
*** if the dough feels sticky you can add more flour, if it feels dry add water ***
Roll the dough out with a rolling pin until 1/4” thick
Use cookie cutters to cut shapes into the dough
Use a straw to pick a hole at the top of the shape (to use to hang the ornament)
Let the dough air dry for 4-7 days
Decorate with paint & add a pipe cleaner or yarn for hanging on your tree!

With so many infant milestones it can be tough to know where to start. Our team is here to help! Each motor milestone builds upon prior milestones, making them all important for overall development! Try these quick tips to promote rolling!

👶🏽rolling occurs back to belly first and requires A LOT of core muscles. Begin strengthening these muscles through bringing the limbs together at midline. A toy such as the O ball can be great for bringing t hands together at the middle (3m skill), then target play with their feet to promote a baby ab exercise to bring their feet up!
👶🏽vestibular processing occurs in the inner ear and gives us information regarding where we are in space. Rolling is a big movement on a small infant body! Through strengthening awarness of their body in space you can enhance your babies comfort with these movements. You can do large sweeping motions with your baby through space & even do some inversion. Less time in baby ‘containers’(car seat, bouncy seat, stroller) can also help with developing vestibular processing!
👶🏽Use a yoga ball to provide the body with sensory input to decrease tension and promote movement. Side to side movements on the yoga ball can also prompts strengthening of the outside of the core,essential for rolling!
👶🏽Keep up your awesome activities and engagement!
