Understanding Therapy at Home

Life is all about learning! And what it therapy? Therapy is learning how to live as independently as possible. Therapy can be done at home…and if you look at what you already do at home…you are probably doing lots of therapy each and every day!

Working with your child’s therapists and teachers to know what they are working on at school will keep you working towards the same goals at home! Check out some examples of how to make therapy at home more fun!
