Why teach leisure skills and independent activities? For me, it was very important when thinking of that life-long pursuit of having things that you enjoy ... and having confidence. - Ilana Hoffer Skoff, parent speaker and Milestones co-founder My daughter loves computer team games. The cool thing is [the players] will collaborate with each other for the task at hand and they will talk to each other through messaging or audio ... I love it. Its one of the few times that she really likes to socialize. - Naomi Shiffman, parent speaker Some leisure is very open ended ... no time frame, no end product. So for a lot of kids, especially when theyre younger, having time frames and timers are great to help them know what to do. As they get older, theyll start to develop the skills and it gets easier to work on something for a while, stop, and go back to it. - Trudy Stearns, OTRL/L, parent speaker Get the full scoop tomorrow 3/18.
