Written for parents, health professionals, and teachers, this is a practical and accessible guide to understanding and developing fine motor skills in children with Down syndrome. The author draws on her expertise as a seasoned occupational therapist and parent to show readers how to help children develop the hand skills required for such tasks as holding pencil, cutting with scissors, or using a computer. Especially valuable is the book's sensitivity to the medical, physical, and psychological characteristics of children with Down Syndrome and how these can affect motor development.
