Abstract
Will Reeny try? Of course she will try, when she learns this mindful mantra. She will try a new food, she will try to get in the pool and she will even try to go skateboarding. Come along with Reeny, see what situations she things are too difficult and watch to see if she will try. Help your child or students learn an important concept, that they can try even when they don't know what new places, people or things will be like. Being successful is not the focus, trying when they are unsure is. Emotions are tricky and hard to manage when you're small which is why kids need our help. This book equips children with a necessary skill in order to cope with tricky emotions that arise because of everyday issues, the knowledge that they can try.

Abstract
Occupational therapy uses simple, fun activities to help kids learn the skills they need for daily life, from eating meals and writing the alphabet to socializing with friends and family. Occupational Therapy Activities for Kids is designed to help children at all developmental ability levels strengthen those skills by playing their way through 100 exciting exercises that are easy to do at home anytime.
-
This family-friendly guide offers concise information on how occupational therapy works and shows you how to apply it in a way that benefits your child. The games are even divided into chapters based on different types of occupational therapy skills―sensory processing, motor, social-emotional, and cognitive and visual processing―so you can focus on the ones that are most important for your child.
Customizable for your kid―Every chapter starts with the simplest activities and increases in complexity, with tips on how to make each activity easier or harder.
No experience necessary―From Balloon Volleyball to Find the Treasure, most exercises can be done with things you probably already have in your home. No prior knowledge or special tools required.
All kids, all ages―These occupational therapy activities are built for kids 1 to 6 years old with various developmental challenges, but they can help all kids improve their physical, social-emotional, and cognitive abilities.
