Encouraging Leisure Skills in Your Teen

Does your teen struggle with finding hobbies or activities to occupy their downtime?

In this week's video, Pediatric Occupational Therapist, Nicole Kristal, explains what leisure skills are, how they can benefit your child, and how to encourage your teen to participate in appropriate leisure activities! When children know how to engage in leisure activities during their unstructured, down time, they are more likely to choose adaptive skills over maladaptive ones, that could get them in trouble.

If you have any questions or concern's about your child's development, reach out to us at Emerge today!
