Developing appropriate independent play skills is essential for our students to use their free time wisely. In this course, we will give you a variety of ideas on how to develop independent play skill.

“How do I get my child to be more engaged with toys like other children?” is a common question that we have received from parents. As many children may have narrow interest in toys or activities, they may not seek out these kinds of experiences as much as typically-developing children. Mr. Toby Mountjoy will discuss the possible reasons behind. He will also share the most common bugbears when teaching play and how therapists can expand upon a child’s interests.
