PBMT - Day 179

We had an OT appointment at DK this morning for Adrian's motor skills assessment. However, we realized it was actually a hand-eye coordination assessment as soon as we entered the room and met with the therapist. The whole process didn't take too long and with the help of various toys, Adrian did cooperate this time. The Therapist gave Adrian marks as he played on different toys to evaluate how well he can perform. She will get back to us on the result once she's finished all the number crunching. And the good news is Adrian wasn't that far behind from the preliminary result! She suggested a few tools/toys (e.g. threading beads onto a string, playing with baby scissors and screwing/unscrewing bottles) which may help to train Adrian for the time being. Apart from the Physiotherapist, the Occupational Therapist once again concluded that Adrian is left-handed after this assessment!!!

I am so surprised at the number of left-handed kids these days. Even Kate is left handed (but both Kenneth and I are not). I'm sure Adrian will have lots of opportunities to practice his hand-eye coordination later on, when he nags you into getting him various video gaming consoles!!!
