It is an important skill set most kids struggle with, be it Neuroypical (NT) or Diverse. As a therapist, challenges that we may face while teaching a child on the spectrum may be as varied as
#poor self regulation
#no sitting tolerance
#inadequate visuo-spatial-perceptual processing
#lacking fine motor gradation
#poor strength in shoulder stabilisers, upper limb , core muscles.
and so on....
A mainstay of therapy begins with co-regulating the child with 'just the right challenge' and a 'sensory apt' environment.This along with specific sensory motor based activities lays the foundation for learning a skill set with greater ease, lesser time and smooth transitions across social settings ( clinic, home and school)
