Top 5 signs your child might need speech or occupational therapy
Early detection of developmental delays can make a big difference. Look out for these signs in your child and seek guidance if needed for therapy and support.
1. Speech delay: If your child isn’t using words by 18 months, it’s worth investigating.
2. Difficulty following instructions: This could signal attention or comprehension issues.
3. Struggles with fine motor skills: Trouble holding crayons or small objects may need attention.
4. Avoids social interaction: Reluctance to engage with peers might indicate a need for help.
5. Behavioral challenges: Intense tantrums or sensory sensitivity could mean more support is needed.
Seeking professional guidance early can help your child overcome challenges and reach their full potential.
