An occupational therapist helps kids develop the skills they need for daily activities (occupations) like playing, learning, and self-care. They assess and address challenges in areas such as fine motor skills, sensory processing, and social interaction. Therapy methods may include sensory integration therapy, hand-eye coordination exercises, and activities to improve independence in tasks like dressing and writing. Overall, their goal is to support children in reaching their full potential and participating fully in life.
