Can’t Play Won’t Play: Simply Sizzling Ideas to Get the Ball Rolling for Children With Dyspraxia

For parents, teachers, and others who work with children, Drew, an occupational therapist, and Atter, a physiotherapist, offer a guide to helping children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) to enjoy physical activities. Each chapter takes on an activity, from swimming to bike riding to skipping, and outlines the skills they develop, tips for helping the child, and ways to build their confidence. Several games to play during each activity are included, as well as web resources for equipment and organizations mostly in the UK, but with some in the US.
