PMC ALL STAR: Tucker!

Tucker has been a patient at PMC since 2020. 


Since Tucker started, he has made great progress toward his goals! He is now using scissors to cut with minimal assistance, lacing beads independently, demonstrating increased success with prewriting strokes in prep for handwriting, and engaging in gym and therapy room play with increased awareness of self and others. He has also been able to allow more flexibility with his play routine and has enjoyed simple turn taking play with his therapist! 


Some of Tucker's favorite things to do at PMC:

  • use the swings for large movements
  • carry weighted balls up the steps to push down the slide
  • run on the air mat and hit a balloon to back and forth


We cant wait to continue to watch you achieve your goals Tucker! Keep up the great work!
