It’s SATURDAY 👀🎉
Because of the Easter public holiday, we’re a day late with our FunPlay Friday video—but we definitely didn’t forget! 😄
Here it is!

Today we’re focusing on Spatial Relations 👆👇👉
Here are some fun, easy activities you can try at home:

Here’s a bit more information on some of the activities:

🧩 Noughts and Crosses
We all know the classic game—but who would have thought it’s a great way to practise spatial relations?
Change it up by playing outside—use your finger in the sand!
For older kids, switch it up and use letters like b/d instead of noughts and crosses.

🚘 Space Placement Game
Use objects and give instructions on where to place them.
For example: “Put the car inside the container” or “Place the block behind the car.”

Change it up by using different position words like: in, behind, in front, on top, left, and right.

👉 Alternative:
Let your child position their own body according to instructions 🏃🏼‍♀️🪑
(e.g. stand behind the chair, climb on the chair, stand in front of the chair).

✍️ Draw-a-Block Game
A favourite for older kids (6–7 years and up)!
If you’re unsure how to play, DM us—we’d love to explain.

✨ Yeaah you guessed it…
It’s Tip Tuesday! ✨

This week we’re focusing on Spatial Orientation 🧭

Spatial orientation helps children understand where their bodies are in space and how objects relate to each other—an essential skill for reading, writing, maths, and navigating everyday tasks 📚✏️

👀 Keep an eye out for Friday’s video, where we’ll share easy, practical ways to support spatial orientation using items you already have 🙌

It’s FRIYAY 👀🎉
Which means… time for a FunPlay Friday video!

Today we’re focusing on Visual Closure 👁️✨
Here are some fun, easy activities you can try at home:

Here’s a bit more information on some of the activities:

🧩 Complete the Picture
Draw different incomplete pictures on paper. Start simple, then increase the difficulty as your child improves.
Encourage your child to complete the missing parts of each picture.

🍬 Jelly Tot Creations (YUM!)
Use jelly tots and toothpicks to build shapes or figures.
Encourage your child to be creative—bonus points because they can eat it afterwards! 😄
👉 Alternative: use playdough instead.

🎮 Hangman with a Twist
Who knew Hangman can support visual closure skills?
If you’re unsure how to play, DM us—we’d love to help!

Our first FunPlay Friday video is officially here! 🎊🎊
GREAT NEWS: You can look forward to a new video every Friday!! 👀👀

Some information regarding the activities:
JUMPING on the correct numbers/letters:
- With chalk, draw a variety of different sized S's and 5's on the floor. Then, give your child the instruction to jump on either all the 5's or S's.
You can also draw them on a page and ask your child to circle them. This can also work with lowercase b's and d's, r's and n's, squares and rectangles, and circles and ovals!

Polkadot worksheet:
- Create a row of circles, each drawn in a different colour. Place a shape/a line through each colour, creating a different "code" for each. Then, place many different circles on the rest of the page with 5-6 of each colour and ask your child to draw the correct shape/line according to the "code" on the top of the page.
For this, you can use different coloured circle stickers, you can draw the circles on the page, or you can print a page of coloured circles.

DISCLAIMER: These activities can, in no way, replace therapy. They are meant to be used as fun and practical ways to stimulate visual discrimination at home. Anelda Kruger Occupational Therapy and associated parties take no responsibility for any harm caused during these activities. Complete them at your own discretion.

Please feel free to comment or dm us any questions/uncertainties that you may have about these activities! 🤍🌸
