Do you have a child who doesn't let you know until the verylastminute that they have to use the bathroom? Does your child not ask for food and then seem to get really hangry? Does your child not seem to have awareness of when they have gotten too hot or too cold, and you're putting a blanket on a child with a blue nose? They may have an issue with interoception. I go over what this means and the types of activities that can help children tune into their inner states more readily. To see if your child could benefit from these activities, consult with an Occupational Therapist with training in this area of development.
