Bilateral coordination in functional tasks makes up much of our day! Think of all of the other areas where you are using both hands or both sides of the body at the same time: getting dressed, tying shoes, cooking, typing, holding a book while reading, pouring a glass of water…the list could go on and on! I love having my kids do animal walks (they love it too!), and I also like any games that involve using two hands to catch/throw a ball, using play dough to practice cutting and other bimanual coordination activities.

Here we are covering all things bilateral coordination toys. When it comes to bilateral integration, coordinating both sides of the body in play can be a challenge for some children. These bilateral skills impact functional use of the body, motor planning, and bilateral integration as a whole. It’s through play with occupational therapy toys targeting bilateral skills that children can strengthen and develop this essential motor skill. Let’s dissect a few select toys that promote this skill. Bopping balloons to keep them in the air. It can be one kid, more taking turns, over a net, or keeping it away from each other. For more difficulty, older kids have to use a different hand or foot than the last one they used. Balloons fall slowly so there is more time to coordinate and see where the balloon is going.

Usually, students have not done a lot of it and it is interesting them. Beginning fastener skills are great too. Doing any repetitive activity is usually calming for students. Personalized Busy Board For Toddler Montessori Educational Sensory Board, Activity Developing Toy, Personalized Large Sensory Activity BoardI love using a zoomball, accordian tubes, stringing different kinds of beads, Mr. Mustache Man (tennis ball with slit cut into it; kids have to squeeze the mouth open with 1 hand & feed with other hand), different gross motor games/obstacle courses, construction toys (especially Zoobz), and many more activities. 🙂 Sensory wall set of 6 pcs with xylophone Big size busy board for kid's space Ocean theme activity board Waiting room design Most recently my kids liked placing matching beads on a pipe cleaner tree. The tree wasn’t stable enough so it required a second hand to stabilize while they placed beads with dominant hand. Also love a pop tube for bilateral hand work. Even my kids who don’t like loud sounds will engage with a pop tube! Working on bilateral coordination in play is a means and a strategy for building this essential skill. So, why is bilateral coordination so important? And what exactly does bilateral coordination mean? DIY Bilateral Coordination Toys There are many bilateral coordination toys on the market as well. Let’s take a look at some toys and games that you can add to your therapy toolbox.

Using puzzles and games that you already have with an extra special addition can be a great way to work on bilateral coordination with puzzles. I make seasonal paper plates that require clothespin- spider/legs, turkey/featers, flower, snoflake, Santa’s beard, reainbo to match paint sample colors, ice cream cone with sprinkles, etc. i also have them stand on a balance board while they complete the ideal cross midline activity- especially with lots of turkey feathers they painted with dor markers. I also have a variety a clothespins from easy plastic to plastic clamps or paper fasteners that are hard. I even had wide handled plastic one for different squeeze/grasp… Using both sides of the body together is a skill needed for many tasks: writing with a pencil with one hand while stabilizing paper with the other hand is one such activity.
