Anyone know where this quote is from? πŸ˜…

We use it all the time!

Kids hear all sorts of things from classmates, siblings, sometimes even from their own big feelings in a hard moment.

A label, a bad day, or a meltdown doesn't define who they are. Our job as parents and caregivers isn't to stop the hard moments from happening, it's to remind our kids, that they are so much more than any one moment, mistake, or unkind word.

They're not the banana... they're the whole fruit bowl! πŸ‡πŸŽπŸŒ

Some kids just need to move!

To push, squeeze, crash, and feel their body in space before they can settle into anything else. That's not a behaviour problem, that's a nervous system asking for input.

Body socks are one of our favourite ways to answer that ask 🧦

It's a large stretchy lycra sack a child climbs inside. In sessions, our OTs reach for body socks when a child needs support with:
πŸ‘‰ Settling and regulation
πŸ‘‰ Body awareness
πŸ‘‰ Motor planning
πŸ‘‰ Getting ready to focus

They're also brilliant at home. Portable, washable, and most kids think they're genuinely fun.

Useful for after-school wind-downs, movement breaks, or any moment where your child's body needs help finding calm.

If you've ever watched your child crash into cushions, squeeze into tight spaces, or seek out that heavy pressure feeling, a body sock might be worth trying!

Some days I can't believe this is my actual job, and I love every bit of it. Best seat in the house watching these kids grow whilst living out my inner child life.

Yesterday, I overheard one of our team explaining what occupational therapy is to a child in our waiting room.

"Kids have all different kinds of worries. My job is to help them figure out what their worry is, and help the grown-ups in their lives figure out how to support them."

Occupational Therapy looks different for every child, but I thought that was a pretty lovely explanation of what occupational therapy can look like for some of our Wildflower Kids.

Sometimes the simplest explanations are the best ones 🌿

At Wildflower, we’re supporting the campaign because access to occupational therapy matters deeply for the children and families we walk alongside.

We are an intentionally small, values-led paediatric therapy practice grounded in neurodiversity-affirming care.

Our work is not about compliance, performance, or getting through a therapy task.

Our first goal is that each child feels safe enough to be themselves and wants to be in the room.

OT can support children with regulation, sensory processing, play, communication, participation and daily life. It can help children feel safer in their bodies, better understood by the people around them, and more able to engage with the world in ways that make sense for them.

For many families, the NDIS is what makes this support possible.

When access to OT becomes harder, children and families feel that first. Waitlists grow. Support becomes less consistent. Families are left carrying more. And children who may not fit neatly into traditional therapy models risk missing out on the thoughtful, relational and individualised support they deserve.

We care because children deserve to be met with curiosity rather than judgement.

We care because families deserve access to support that sees the full, messy, beautiful reality of their child.

And we care because occupational therapy has an important role in helping children participate more fully in their homes, schools and communities.

No OTs, No NDIS.

The word 'and' can be surprisingly powerful πŸ€”

It allows us to hold two truths at the same time without needing to choose one over the other.

✨ Your child can be disappointed, and the boundary can stay in place
✨ You can feel exhausted, and still appreciate the good moments
✨ Something can be hard, and still be worthwhile.

When we replace 'but' with 'and', we create space for validation without removing reality. We acknowledge feelings without needing to fix them, minimise them, or argue against them.

Sometimes the most supportive thing we can do, for ourselves and for our children, is simply make room for both truths to exist together.

πŸ’­ Where could you swap a 'but' for an 'and' this week?
