1001 Pediatric Treatment Activities: Creative Ideas for Therapy Sessions PDF
I was looking for a book for some creative things to do with the kids in my physical therapy sessions. This one has some ideas, but I feel they are fairly basic and not particularly creative, at least for the gross motor physical therapy activities. The occupational therapy and speech therapy activities appear to be a little more exciting.By E. Miller
Good book, larger than expected. Good breakdown of sections with background theory and reasoning for the activities(sensory, gross motor, fine motor etc). Very helpful as a new graduate Occupational Therapist.By Grad OT
