[@maggiebo181]

love the ideas! how long should each exercise last and how often these 10 exercises should be repeated?

[@sabrinamonsonego7168]

obsessed with your videos!!! Any activity ideas with the use of a hula hoop? :)

[@TheOTGuide]

Oooooh, not off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are millions of cool activities to do with a hula hoop. You mean to target core strength? Just using a hula hoop properly is an awesome ab workout! (I still can't do it)

[@alanapatzwald5590]

Wow! This was soooo helpful for a classroom teacher with IEP goals to help implement!

Such a super guide thank you!! Do you have any tips if the child is struggling to engage the core and keeps arching their backs? We suspect DCD but waiting on a diagnosis

[@TheOTGuide]

I am so sorry for the delayed response, I'm just seeing your comment now! This is a great question. My biggest tip is to give verbal and tactile cues. Your verbal cue (if the child is laying on their back) would be something along the lines of "keep your back pushed against the ground" to prevent that lower back arching. You could even point/touch the point of their back they need to modify. If you notice that arching while they are standing you could encourage them to "scoop" their tailbone and then also model this for them.
