Getting Dressed

We have really been working on Addy's independence lately. She always wants to do things herself, however, her size and lack of motor skills impede her progress. Since she will be going to kindergarten in the fall, independence is super important. So... she is responsible for hanging up her coat and backpack and putting her snack away at school. We had to give her extra hooks in her cubby, she was too short to reach the other ones :) She has a difficult time using both hands together and tries so hard to hang her things up one handed. Once we get her to use both hands she can usually do it.

At home we are working on her dressing skills. She can take her clothes off pretty well but putting them on is more difficult for her. The other day I put her in the family room and tossed her clothes to her to see what she would do. She always tries to dress herself but I usually have to intervene :) Check her out :)
Whoops, this is my shirt, not my pants!










Ta Dah!!

You go girl!

Keep up the great work Addy. Ben is in a similar spot. He has much better luck putting on his big brother's clothes than his own.
