Summary:

The popular book, Fine Motor Skills for Children with Down Syndrome is now available in an expanded new edition. Written by an occupational therapist who has worked extensively with children with Down syndrome, and is also the mother a teenager with Down syndrome, this book explains the best practices and procedures for helping children master daily living skills for home, school, and an independent future.

The author presents a thorough overview of the building blocks of fine motor development and how the characteristics of Down syndrome can impact the acquisition and progression of fine motor skills.

She also explains the building blocks of fine motor development: Stability
Bilateral coordination
Sensation
Dexterity
Early arm and hand control
And covers important daily living skills for home and school: Dressing & grooming
Eating & drinking
Cutting
Grasping a pencil
Preprinting skills
Drawing
Printing
Cursive handwriting
There are instructions for dozens of easy home- and school-based activities, which help children gradually overcome delays and learn the fine motor skills mentioned above. The author suggests ways for parents to incorporate these exercises into as many day-to-day activities as possible, recognizing how impractical it is to constantly be in "therapy" mode with a child.

New material includes a chapter on problems with sensory processing for those who are over- or under-responsive to touch, or have unexpected reactions to sound, pain, or other sensations. Being aware of these sensitivities can open pathways to better behavior and responsiveness to therapy. Also new is information about a critical developmental step--determining when a child is ready for preprinting activities. These and many other additions make this the most up-to-date, comprehensive resource on fine motor development for children with Down syndrome.

highly recommended
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This book is very informative and breaks down fine motor development very well with very good examples that both a parent and therapist will find useful

Great Resource
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

We have been using this book as a resource while working with my 1 1/2 year old grandson who was shaken at the age of 7 weeks. While not everything in it applies because he does not have Downs Syndrome, it has proviced a wealth of very practical hands-on information that we just couldn't find elsewhere.

Two sections of the book that I found especially helpful were the summary of fine motor development at the end of Chapter 3 and Chapter 11 on sensory processing. However, the entire book is just an outstanding resource for laypeople like myself struggling to come up with practical ways to help a very young child with severe developmental delays.

Great book for parent and professional
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This book details all aspects of the child with down syndrome. I think this is a must have book for parents, and an equally important book for the professional working with a child diagnosed with down syndrome.

Great Practical Strategies from a Special Day Class Teacher
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

I would recommend buying this book since it includes many practical strategies with working with children with low cognitive functioning. We, as teachers, need practical ideas based by "best practice" research that we can implement immediately after reading a book. This is a book by a seasoned special education teacher and I recommend it highly.

Great book!
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This is a great book for anyone working with or parenting children with down syndrome (and fascinating for anyone with children). It covers development based on stages rather than ages, so the focus can be on the child and not on a outwardly determined norm for development.
