Developing a child’s wellbeing and positive sense of self is essential for their participation and joy. We know that some daily living skills are difficult to develop, perhaps due to motor skill challenges or the fact that they just aren’t interesting. We created The Wellbeing Kit to be themed with your child’s relationship with and love for their pets. Through this relationship, your child can meaningfully participate in tasks that care for their pet but also develop similar skills for their own personal lives too. Watch and follow our OTs as they guide you through different creative activities from painting a bandana, making a visual care routine to reflecting in their personal journal. A positive wellbeing includes a positive mindset, which is why Our Journal has activities that reflect on strengths, identifies affirmation and appreciates the joy a pet can bring to their life.

Small = Cats, Lizards, Chihuahuas, Guinea pigs etc.
Large = Luna (pictured), Labradors, Huskies etc.

Younger children are welcome to participate, but increased adult assistance is needed, particularly for the cutting tasks or the writing tasks in the journal, which can be scribed or completed verbally instead.

Activities - Approximately 55 minutes activity time

Make a Bandana for your Pet! - 15 minutes

Using the paints and material provided, we help your child get creative, by designing a bandana or flag for their pet. Celebrating interests is extremely important for a person’s wellbeing, and if they love pets and animals, this kit is for them! We validate different ideas, skills and different ways of thinking, helping a child know they are valued in their world.

Design a Routine to Care for your Pet- 20 minutes

Using visuals and our posters, your children can autonomously pick which pet care tasks they would like to complete, setting a goal for themself, building their independence and enhancing their daily living skills. Motivation is highest when a child is autonomous, they have a sense of purpose and the tasks are joyful, so no need for reward charts when the activities themselves are the motivator!

Our Journal - 20 minutes

The purpose of Let’s OT is to share information about occupational therapy and activities that can support your child's development. The activities are not a substitute for therapy but can supplement current therapeutic support, therapeutic breaks or waitlists. We hope that you are able to connect with your local occupational therapist for more individualised therapy.

When completing the activities, adult supervision is required at all times. Never leave your child unattended while completing any activity. Care must be taken with small objects which are a choking hazard. Since we can’t be there to help, Let’s OT cannot take responsibility for any damages, losses or injuries.
