5 Playful Ways to Support Your Child at Home

The best therapy often looks just like play. Here are five easy ideas you can try today.

1. Narrate your day. Talk through what you’re doing (“I’m cutting the apple”) to flood your child with language.
2. Sing songs with actions. Rhymes build rhythm, memory, and movement.
3. Cook together. Stirring and pouring strengthen little hands.
4. Play “ready, set… go!” Pausing builds anticipation and turn-taking.
5. Read every day. Point at pictures and let them turn the pages.

Little moments, repeated with love, add up to big progress.
