Why Parent Participation & Follow-Through Are the Keys to Success in Pediatric OT, PT, and Speech Therapy
When a child receives occupational, physical, or speech therapy, the goal is always the same: to help them build the skills they need to thrive in everyday life. Therapists play an essential role in assessment, treatment planning, and skill-building—but the progress a child makes during weekly sessions is only one piece of the puzzle. The biggest gains often happen between appointments, and that’s where parents and caregivers make all the difference.
Below is a look at why parent involvement matters so much, what it really looks like day-to-day, and how you can support your child’s therapy journey for the best possible outcomes.
Boredom For The Brain
Boredom fuels creativity and imagination. When the brain isn’t being fed constant stimulation, it naturally starts wandering inward. This “default mode network” (the brain’s daydreaming system) begins making loose, playful, unexpected connections—exactly the kind that fuel creativity. Children often generate their most imaginative play after they’ve moved through that uncomfortable “I’m bored” stage. It strengthens problem-solving skills. Boredom creates a kind of mental “itch” to do something meaningful or engaging. That discomfort nudges the brain to invent new ideas, seek new solutions, or explore new activities. It’s essentially a catalyst that pushes us to figure things out ourselves.
