Boosting Cognitive and Motor Skills at Home with Occupational Therapy Support

Parents play a huge role in their child’s development—and with the right guidance, everyday moments at home can become powerful opportunities for learning. When a child struggles with focus, problem-solving, or fine motor tasks, occupational therapy can provide the tools they need to succeed. At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, we work closely with families to build skills through hands-on activities that are both fun and functional.

Why Home Practice Matters

Children learn best through repetition and consistency. While therapy sessions provide structure and support, the home is where most learning happens. When parents are actively involved, children make faster and more lasting progress.

Occupational therapy helps children with:

• Fine motor coordination (grasping, writing, buttoning)

• Visual-spatial skills (sorting, matching, patterning)

• Cognitive development (planning, sequencing, problem-solving)

• Attention and task completion

At-home activities—guided by your therapist—reinforce these skills in a low-pressure environment.

What Therapy-Led Home Activities Look Like

Our therapists teach parents how to use simple tools like blocks, puzzles, and shape sorters to target specific developmental areas. These activities help with:

• Hand strength and control

• Following multi-step directions

• Building focus and perseverance

• Learning through structured play

Therapy-led home programs are customized to each child’s goals, abilities, and interests—making progress feel natural and enjoyable.
