My Project

Funding fine motor toys for occupational therapy is an essential investment in helping children develop the foundational skills necessary for everyday tasks and academic success. These toys, which are specifically designed to improve hand-eye coordination, dexterity, strength, and grip, can be used in playful, engaging ways to promote fine motor development in children with a variety of needs, from those with developmental delays to those with sensory processing challenges or motor planning difficulties. By incorporating toys that encourage activities like squeezing, threading, building, and manipulating small objects, occupational therapists can create personalized interventions that support each child’s growth in a fun, low-pressure environment. This funding directly supports children’s ability to engage more effectively in schoolwork, self-care routines, and recreational activities, ultimately boosting their independence and confidence.
