[quote=Anonymous]We skipped OT entirely for our ASD kid. He is clumsy and has attention issues. We went straight to swim lessons and karate. Karate has helped tremendously. He has to listen to follow the class or watch what the other kids do. He is also learning to learn -- karate is hard for him, but he is still improving and advancing through his belts through practice and hard work. He is learning to concentrate better and to screen out sensory input that is distracting. Swim lessons are good for strength and conditioning and coordination. Swimming takes a lot of coordination.
