When a child is super excited about something - Thomas the Tank Engine, tornadoes, musical theater, video games — we don’t see it as a distraction. We see it as a doorway into connection.
Most adults are the same! We’re more motivated when we care about what we’re doing, and when the outcome feels meaningful to us. Kids are no different.
That’s why BAC clinicians intentionally incorporate a child’s interests into sessions. And that’s why Matt (and his occupational therapist, Arielle) spent a recent session building an entire “dinosaur forest” - and then writing about it in detail 👏🦖👏🦖
The best therapy doesn’t happen *TO* a child - it happens *WITH* them, through the things that matter most to them. At the BAC, we follow a child's lead while bringing the clinical expertise to help them grow ✨
(And here's something fun - today is actually National Dinosaur Day! Something one of our dinosaur experts made sure we knew. We love that our kids teach us things, too 🤗)
