using a spoon, small miracles

 


I was talking with a friend about her granddaughter and how her fine motor skills are a little behind. We discussed tactile learners and how the need to practice things with movement to learn. I woke up this morning wondering if my 26 year old son would benefit from some of the things we discussed. He has been able to grasp a spoon but not really hold on to it for an extended period of time. Today he (with much assisted guidance) he fed himself breakfast. After each spoonful he fed himself, we celebrated banging spoons together to increase his wrist strength and gasp. I love the miracles we see each and everyday, no matter the size!!!
