The ABC's of OT:

V is for VESTIBULAR ⚖️

The vestibular system helps with balance, movement, and knowing where your body is in space.

It’s activated when we:
• Spin
• Swing
• Jump
• Change head position

When kids struggle, you might see:
• Fear of movement or heights
• Constant spinning or crashing
• Poor balance or coordination

OT supports the vestibular system through:
✔️ Controlled movement activities
✔️ Swinging and spinning (when appropriate!)
✔️ Balance and coordination play

A strong vestibular system = better balance, focus, and confidence 💛

When kids struggle, you might see:

The ABC's of OT:

S is for SENSORY PROCESSING 🧠✨

Sensory processing is how the brain receives, interprets, and responds to sensory input.

This includes:
👀 What we see
👂 What we hear
✋ What we feel
⚖️ Movement and body awareness

When kids struggle, you might see:
• Sensitivity to sounds, textures, or lights
• Seeking movement or crashing
• Trouble focusing or staying regulated

OT helps by:
✔️ Understanding sensory needs
✔️ Providing the right input
✔️ Supporting regulation

When sensory needs are met, everything else gets easier 💛

04/20/2026

The ABC'S of OT:

R is for REGULATION 🧠💛

Regulation is a child’s ability to manage their emotions, body, and attention.

It’s not about being “good” or “bad”— it’s about having the skills to stay:
✨ Calm
✨ Focused
✨ In control

When kids struggle with regulation, you might see: • Big reactions or meltdowns
• Trouble sitting or focusing
• Impulsive behaviors

OT supports regulation through:
✔️ Sensory strategies
✔️ Movement and body input
✔️ Teaching coping skills

Regulated kids = kids who can learn, play, and thrive 🙌

The ABC's of OT:

Q is for QUALITY OF MOVEMENT 🎯

In OT, it’s not just about what a child does…
It’s about how they do it.

We look at:
• Smoothness of movement
• Coordination
• Control
• Effort and efficiency

Two kids can complete the same task—but with very different quality.

OT helps improve quality of movement by:
✔️ Building strength and stability
✔️ Improving coordination
✔️ Practicing skills the right way

Because better quality = easier, more successful participation 💛

The ABC's of OT:

P is for PROPRIOCEPTION 💪

Proprioception is your body’s ability to sense where it is and how it’s moving.

It helps kids:

• Move safely and confidently
• Stay regulated and focused

When kids struggle, you might see:
• Crashing, jumping, or seeking movement
• Using too much or too little force
• Clumsiness or poor body awareness

The ABC's of OT:

N is for NEURODIVERSITY 🧠💛

Neurodiversity means that all brains are different—and that’s not a problem to fix.

It includes kids with:
• Autism
• ADHD
• Sensory differences
• Learning differences

In OT, we don’t try to “change” who a child is.

We support them by:

Different, not less 💛

The ABC's of OT:

M is for MIDLINE CROSSING ➡️⬅️

Midline crossing is the ability to reach across your body to the other side.

It’s essential for everyday skills like:
✏️ Writing
👕 Dressing
⚽ Sports
📚 Reading

When kids struggle with this, you might see:
• Switching hands mid-task
• Turning their whole body instead of reaching across
• Messy or inefficient work

OT helps build this through:
✔️ Crossing midline activities
✔️ Bilateral play
✔️ Fun movement games

Stronger midline skills = smoother, more coordinated movement 🙌

L is for LOW TONE 💪
Low muscle tone (hypotonia) can make everyday tasks feel harder for kids.

You might notice:
• Slouching or leaning on surfaces
• Fatigue with sitting or writing
• “Floppy” or low endurance posture
• Delayed motor skills

OT helps by building:
✔️ Core strength
✔️ Postural control

Support the body → support everything else 💛

The ABC's of OT:

K is for KINESTHETIC AWARENESS 🧠💪

Kinesthetic awareness is your body’s ability to know how it’s moving… without looking.

When kids struggle with this, you might see:
• Using too much or too little force ✏️
• Clumsy or uncoordinated movements
• Breaking crayons or writing too lightly
• Difficulty with sports or playground skills

OT helps build this through:
✔️ Heavy work activities
✔️ Resistance (pushing, pulling, carrying)
✔️ Obstacle courses
✔️ Movement-based play

Better body awareness = better control, coordination, and confidence 🙌
