It’s easy to look at putty and just see play… unless your an occupational therapist 👀

Squeezing, pinching, rolling, and pulling putty all help build hand strength, grasp and coordination; the same skills kids use to open their snack bag, zip up their coats, hold a pencil, turn a door handle…(the list goes on!!)

And since October is Occupational Therapy month in Canada, we wanted to share one of the many ways we sneak skill-building into play💛
