How to help your child at home
- Practise putting their coat on independently. This includes putting their arms the right way round if they are inside out. Then practise zipping up their coat.
- Remind them to tidy up their toys when they have finished playing.
- Encourage them to be independent - using the toilet, washing their hands, getting a drink when they are thirsty, getting a tissue when needed, peeling their own fruit.
- To talk in sentences to express their needs, interests and ideas.
- To understand and respond to simple instructions.
- To hold a pencil with 2 fingers and a thumb, no longer using a grasp hold.
