Using Activities of Daily Living for Positive Reinforcement

Using Activities of Daily Living for Positive Reinforcement - www.YourTherapySource.com/blog1

Here are a few suggestions for squeezing in some more practice for activities of daily living and positive reinforcements:

  1. Button Bags – sew a felt bag that has a few button closures at the top. In order for the children to get the reward they must unbutton the bag to reveal the prize.

  2. Zippered Bags – hide the prizes inside pencil pouches and they have to unzip to reveal the prize

  3. Lock and Key – use a lock on a treasure box. To pick a prize you have to unlock the box.

  4. Unscrew the Lid – paint the inside of a jar to hide what is inside. The children have to unscrew the lids to get the reward.

  5. Shoe Untying – hide the prize inside a sneaker. The child must untie the shoe to get to the prize. Then let the child pick a prize to hide back in the shoe for the next child and tie the shoe back up.

  6. Envelope Cutting – hide the prize in an envelope and the child has to use scissors or a letter opener to cut the envelope open. Good one for small stickers.
