Bu practiced shape recognition with his OT...she asked him questions like "where is the triangle?" and then Bu would put a sticker in the triangle shape. This helped his fine motor control and was also sensory (he hates stickers), plus it obviously helped with his shapes and vocabulary. We practiced color recognition and matching by putting "puppies" in their matching "dog houses". And of course, Bu played with his Pets puzzle a LOT, it's one of his favorites!
He did some sight word flashcards this week on his iPad. We did an activity where we practiced differentiating between upper and lowercase letters. I don't think this was a great choice of letter (P is so similar in both variations that it wasn't very interesting) but I really like the idea of the activity. We did some color sorting in "goldfish bowls" and even more puzzles!
We also just signed up for ABC Mouse. I'm looking forward to getting Bu interested in doing computer work, and I like that the activities start at "toddler level" so we can build from basics.
