Is your child a chronic mouth breather?

Here’s a simple 5-minute daily practice to support children who habitually mouth breathe. Use everyday moments like car rides or quiet play to gently build awareness, encourage nasal breathing, and support better oral posture. Try to avoid constantly reminding your child to “close their mouth,” as this can unintentionally draw attention to the behavior and create a more negative dynamic.

If mouth breathing is ongoing, especially during sleep, it’s important to consult an ENT (ear, nose, and throat specialist) to rule out underlying causes like allergies, nasal blockage, or enlarged tonsils/adenoids. Sometimes it’s more than a habit and needs medical evaluation.

Chronic mouth breathing may result in:
-Dental and facial development changes
-Dry mouth and increased cavity risk
-Sleep issues like snoring or restlessness
-Less efficient, less regulated breathing patterns

✨ OT Tip of the Day ✨
Working on a vertical plane (like a wall or easel) naturally encourages wrist extension and proper hand positioning.

This simple setup helps children build:
• Strong tripod grasp
• Hand strength & control
• Fine motor skills for handwriting

Small changes in position can make a big difference in development!

Non-verbal children communicate in many meaningful ways. By paying attention to their cues and responding with patience, we can better understand and support them.
