Therapy

Due to the various physical difficulties involved with Goldenhar Syndrome, many types of therapy are recommended for our children. Some include:

Speech Therapy (to help develop both feeding techniques, and speech)

Physical Therapy (gross motor skills)

Occupational Therapy (fine motor skills)

And Many Others.

Due to my daughter's specific needs for developing all of these areas I took on a proactive roll in therapy for her. When therapists weren't readily available, I incorporated her different therapies into her daily play routine.

With always being on the lookout for great educational toys, games and books, my husband found a catalogue for Discovery Toys for me.
