[quote=Anonymous]Does he like to read and tell stories? One thing I do a lot of is tell stories to my 4.25 year old and slowly have him start adding things in so he gets a sense of narrative and plot, as well as sequencing events. He has very delayed fine motor skills and some attention issues, so I feel like this is a good way to develop his logical thinking and problem solving skills, and helping him use his mind towards a specific end, but not require him to manipulate objects to do it. I even encourage him to get interested in TV characters because it gives us a cast and plot points to work with! Basically my gut sense is that this is helping him develop his executive function skills. And it's fun! [/quote]
