Did you know kids have a job?!? Yes, you read that right: a job and a very important one at that. Kids have the job, or occupation, of growing, learning, and developing. Want to know one of the best ways they do this? Play! Playing is literally the occupation of kids! So when kids aren't developing, growing, or learning in the ways pediatricians expect, they often refer kids to an occupational therapist for an evaluation. From there we can determine what extra help a child may need to continue doing their best at their very important job.
