Children learn through play. As an occupational therapist who works with children and youth, I use games and toys almost every day to help develop important cognitive, visual perceptual, motor, sensory, social, play and leisure skills. While many different types of activities can be used in therapy, this blog focuses on off-the-shelf games and toys that are accessible to most. Whether you are a therapist, parent, teacher, or a game lover like me, I hope you discover something useful while you are here. Learn a different way to play a game you already own or discover a new game for your next family game night. Either way, just go play. It's good for you!

The OT Magazine named The Playful Otter one of the Top 5 Pediatric OT Blogs.

Circulo

Circulo - A 4-in-1 circular strategy game.

Circulo includes four different games, each played in a tall cylinder shaped tube. The plastic pieces slip easily into grooves so they will stay put once you drop them from the top. Players take turns dropping in one piece at a time. 

There are four different sets of pieces and you can play these four different games: 



The pieces are all the same size.

Try this:

Work on spatial relations, sequencing, visual closure, figure ground, manual dexterity, process skills, socialization skills, executive functioning skills, play and leisure exploration and participation

In the box: Circulo game tube with cap, 1 set of pipe connections tiles, 1 set of 4-in-a-row tiles, 1 set of 4 letter words tiles, 1 set of sum of the squares tiles
