The child here is lying in a prone position, striking a bouncy surface with his legs. This exercise aims at strengthening the muscles, especially glutes, hamstrings and other knee flexors , by using them to control the recoil from hitting the said object. It also provides great proprioceptive sensory input including the sense of body position and movement without seeing it.🌸

Stop turning playtime into a quiz.

Want to boost your child’s speech naturally?
Start by following what they enjoy.

Jump into their world—cars, dolls, snacks, anything they’re excited about.

When kids are engaged, they’re much more likely to talk and express themselves.

Let go of the pressure.

Instead of constant questioning, gently model simple words during play together.

We’ve all faced it —
the “no,” the “not now,” or the complete shutdown.

And most of us were taught one thing:
👉 Be more firm.

But here’s the truth…
For an autistic child, firmness doesn’t feel like guidance —
it feels like more pressure on an already overwhelmed nervous system.

As an autistic teacher, I’ve learned something powerful:
When we stop battling the behaviour and start supporting the nervous system,
what looks like “defiance”… begins to fade.

Because the goal isn’t obedience.
It’s a child who feels safe, regulated, and connected.

👉 Want real change? Start there.

🧠 What midline crossing enables:
• Efficient brain integration
Facilitates seamless communication between the left and right hemispheres, strengthening bilateral integration and overall neural processing.
• Refined motor control
Promotes smooth, controlled, and dissociated movements instead of compensatory whole-body shifts. This is essential for coordinated trunk rotation and limb use.
• Academic readiness skills
Supports visual tracking required for reading (left-to-right progression)
Enables continuous hand movement across a page during writing
Enhances copying, drawing, and spatial organization
• Establishment of hand dominance
Encourages consistent use of a preferred hand, reducing hand-switching and improving task efficiency.
Therapy perspective:
Midline crossing is closely associated with:
Bilateral coordination
Motor planning (praxis)
Postural control
Integration of retained primitive reflexes (particularly ATNR)

✨ Sensory Saturday ✨

I’m starting a new series where I’ll explore different sensory systems and share simple tips parents can use to support their toddler during meltdowns.

Proprioceptive input is something every parent should know about—it can act like a built-in calm button for your little one 🥰

Deep pressure helps regulate the nervous system when a child feels overwhelmed. These are some of the strategies I use as a pediatric OT and a mom.

❤️ Save this post for the next time your toddler is having a tough moment.

Which strategy works best for your toddler? Which one doesn’t help much? Share in the comments! 😊

The most powerful support for parents… is support from other parents.

After our Parent Support Group – “The Wellbeing Circle”, one mother shared her experience in a video. She spoke about how this circle made her feel understood, supported, and hopeful.

Moments like these remind us how powerful a community can be.
When parents hold space for each other, the journey becomes a little easier. 🤍

Many parents feel puzzled or concerned when their child repeats words or questions. While it may seem like mere copying, for many autistic children, this repetition is a natural and meaningful way to process language.

Echolalia can be the brain’s tool for digesting and practicing language. When creating original sentences is tricky, children may echo phrases they’ve heard before. These repeated words can carry intention, express feelings, or help organize thoughts.

Instead of immediately trying to stop echolalia, it’s more helpful to tune in to what your child is communicating. With gentle guidance, language modelling, and structured interaction, these echoes can gradually evolve into independent speech and purposeful conversation.

Every child’s communication path is unique. With patience and support, echolalia can become a bridge to stronger language skills.

💛 If your child often repeats words or struggles to communicate, early understanding and responsive support can make a real difference.
