Ta Doodles & spray bottle

Ta-Doodles

The "Ta-Doodles" are those 3 items (orange, green, purple) beside his leg. It's basically an all-in-one: paint brush & paint. Very handy for a quick painting session. I bought it to get him to open up his palm because his hands are usually in a closed fist & he uses pincer grip to get things. It's by Crayola & washable, but advisable to do it on a floor that's tiled or outdoor (just in case). Also, keep the plastic container that it comes in as it should be stored upright to avoid the paint leaking out. Bought from MPH.

During the painting session, I also got him to use his left hand, which he did, but only for a brief moment, even though I tried to "trick him into it" by giving one each for each hand. (His left arm is tighter than his right, so I've to come up with stuff to do with his left arm)

He wanted to help to clean up the paint on the floor - see the little bit of mess on the floor, in the photo. But I've been "training" him to clean up after playing with any toy. Took the opportunity to get him to use the kid sized spray bottle. He cant squeeze the trigger yet, so I hold my hand over his to help him. Squeezing the trigger helps to strengthen the muscles.

Whilst cleaning up, he used his left hand cos right hand was holding spary bottle. He also did some squatting cos he was wiping up the paint on floor.
