Sometimes, life doesn't go perfectly, and for many of our clients, that can be incredibly distressing. We see it when a child tears up a drawing because of one misplaced line, or when someone avoids a task because they're afraid of getting it wrong. The fear of making mistakes can feel huge.

As OTs, we know perfectionism can make learning new things difficult. When anxiety takes over, engagement drops and frustration rises.

One of my favourite ways to challenge this is through The Scribble Game.

🖌️ How It Works:

• The Mess Up: Close your eyes and draw a random scribble on a piece of paper.

• The Reframe: Turn the page, view it from different angles, and find a hidden shape, animal, or object within the scribble.

• The Masterpiece: Use markers, pencils, or paint to transform the scribble into a piece of art.

🧠 Why This Works:

• Builds Cognitive Flexibility: Encourages children to see opportunities instead of mistakes.

• Boosts Distress Tolerance: Helps them work through an imperfect starting point.

• Shifts the Focus of Control: They can't control the scribble, but they can control how they respond to it.

• Lowers the Stakes: Starting with a mess removes the pressure to be perfect.

We're not just creating art—we're helping build the skills needed to adapt when life doesn't go according to plan.

Today, we used Pop Up Pirate to work on emotions! 🏴‍☠️🔴🔵🟡🟢

We matched the swords to the Zones colours and before each turn had to say something that makes us feel that zone.

This is such a simple and fun way to talk about feelings without it feeling like a big or overwhelming conversation. Children often open up more when they feel safe, relaxed, and engaged in play, which can make it easier to explore emotions naturally and without pressure.

Using familiar games in therapy on top of introducing emotional regulation concepts can help children build emotional awareness and develop the language to express how they are feeling. It also creates opportunities to practise turn taking, waiting, flexible thinking, and co-regulation while staying connected and engaged with others.

Play-based activities like this are a great reminder that emotional development can happen through everyday games that we already have at home, in classes and in therapy spaces!

Goal Plan Do Check (GPDC)

The Goal Plan Do Check (GPDC) framework is an evidence-based, task-oriented cognitive strategy, often used within the CO-OP approach. It is specifically designed to help children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), and other diagnoses involving motor and executive functioning difficulties, learn new motor skills and everyday tasks.

For children with DCD, learning and sequencing motor skills can be challenging. The GPDC strategy helps by collaboratively breaking the task down into smaller sections: setting a Goal, creating a Plan, completing the action (Do), and then reviewing the outcome (Check). This systematic approach allows the child to successfully work towards achieving the motor task.

At Posity, we've seen great success using Goal Plan Do Check to support many children in mastering complex tasks that require coordination and sequencing, such as learning to tie shoelaces. For instance, this young child successfully used the Goal Plan Do Check method to acquire the skill of tying their shoelaces.

A New Grad's Perspective: Stepping into the Workforce 🎓💜

Transitioning from a university student to a practicing Occupational Therapist is a massive leap. But starting my journey as a new graduate Occupational Therapist at Posity has given me the perfect opportunity to grow my skills, build my clinical confidence, and truly thrive.

When you’re stepping into the workforce, having the right support system makes all the difference and the support provided by Posity is what I was always looking for as a new graduate. Here is what has truly shaped my early career so far:

The Power of Supervision: Weekly 1:1 and group supervision sessions have been an absolute game-changer. They give me a safe space to brainstorm creative intervention ideas and have massively boosted my self-esteem as a clinician. 🧠💡

The Reality of Self-Regulation: As OTs, we teach regulation every day but we have to practice what we preach! Debriefing with my supervisor and team during challenging moments has been my biggest anchor ⚓️and is just as important as the therapy I deliver.

💡 My Top 4 "New-Grad Survival" Tips: 💡
🙋‍♀️ Ask Everything:
Reach out for support whenever you need it. No question is a silly question when you are learning!

🧘‍♀️ Protect Your Energy:
Take care of yourself first. Find a hobby completely outside of work, and remember to take a breather to regulate yourself throughout a busy day.

📅 Master the Mental Load:
Calendars and checklists are your best friends. Use them to manage your time effectively and keep those stress levels low.

🚪 Leave Work at Work:
It can be incredibly hard not to carry your day home with you, but protecting your work-life balance is essential for long-term success. When you clock off, mentally clock off too!

Our Favourite Resources - Bubbles 🫧

Bubbles are a useful resource our occupational therapist Paige and many other occupational therapists use during their sessions. Blowing bubbles supports:

🫧 Emotional regulation - during sessions you will often find Paige prompting the children she works with to take a deep breath in through the nose and blow out slowly through the mouth to blow the biggest bubble possible. Blowing bubbles activates the parasympathetic nervous system by promoting the body to slow down, reducing heart rate and grounding the mind, which all work together to help the individual calm down and achieve emotional regulation (It is also really hard to blow bubbles when feeling angry or frustrated!).

🫧 Rapport building and social play - blowing bubbles is an easy and low-pressure way to play with others, especially when an occupational therapist and child are meeting for the first time. Turn taking can also be implemented for blowing and popping bubbles.

🫧 Sensory modulation - blowing bubbles is a multi-sensory experience incorporating touch through popping bubbles, movement to run or walk around the room to pop bubbles and visual processing to watch the bubbles float through the air.

🫧 Following instructions - play with bubbles can support children with following instructions by the occupational therapist or family members providing instructions to the child about how to pop the bubbles using their finger, head or foot. Instructions such as “ready, set, go” and “stop” can also be implemented to start and pause play with bubbles.

Building Rapport - Conversation Starters
"Yes" ✅
"No" 🚫
"I don't know" 😕
A shrug 🤷‍♀️

We've all been there before. Sometimes it can be really tricky to start building rapport and engaging with a client when you first meet, especially if they're from a different age group than what you would normally see, or have different interests to you.

It can be very handy to have some kind of conversation starter handy to help break the ice and get a client comfortable to chat. Instead of a line of questioning that feels more like an interview, try the following ideas:
💚An 'all about me' activity 🤸‍♀️
💜Conversation cards 🃏
💚Conversation dice 🎲

This are handy resources to use in your initial couple of sessions to get to know your client's interests and strengths, but also give them a chance to know you. Opening up about your life and enjoyments can help you appear less like a scary therapist, and more like someone who has there own likes and dislikes, just a plain old person like them. This can seriously help with rapport early on, and set you and your client up for an excellent client-practitioner relationship!
