OT FUN with Shaving Cream Part 1

July 13, 2020 Shaun Grant
OT Activity of the Day- Fine Motor

OT FUN with Shaving Cream Part 1! Giving the dinosaurs a bath! I actually did a car wash with toy cars at a home visit, but the dinosaurs were all I had in the clinic. So give anything a bath:).

This is a great activity for not only our sensory seekers, but those that need a little help with their hand strength! For our sensory seekers it’s a great opportunity to play with shaving cream. An activity I might suggest for outside time if you have a kid who is serious about their sensory play;).

For our kiddos who need some hand strengthening work, the use of the spray bottle is for them! The kids are so excited to give the toys a bath they’re not even aware they’re building strength in their hands! Try to see how long they can use their dominant hand by itself!

This is an activity I would suggest be done outside or in a large container with towels underneath, it’s going to get messy!

Stay safe and enjoy!
