I recently read a blog from a mother, Stephanie, of a child, Hazel, born with Down Syndrome. The way she talks about the activies she participates in with her children is inspiring and readers can really see how therapy is individualized for Hazel to help her grow and develop.
For example the following was pulled from Stephanie's blog:

As Hazel grows and masters old skills, we change the activities we do in Occupational Therapy. Here are some of the toys that are in our OT bin right now.
Once again, I cannot stress enough the importance of individualization of treatment for clients because they are human and all people learn, grow,and develop via their own schedules and methods.Stephanie.
