The mission of San Antonio Busy Bodies is to provide a fun and effective motor behavior and learning center for children from early childhood through adolescence where the learning atmosphere is one in which success is the rule rather than the exception. San Antonio Busy Bodies believes that each child can improve their motor behavior as they relate to the following:
- Sensory processing skills (visual, auditory, tactile, gustatory, olfactory, proprioceptive, and vestibular)
- Fundamental gross motor skills (static and dynamic)
- Motor planning and control (interaction of perception and postural and voluntary movement awareness – handwriting and sports skills)
- Manipulative and fine motor skills (using scissors, tying shoes and handwriting)
- Cognitive abilities (improving critical thinking and language as a medium for learning through movement)
- Self-esteem (children desire need to participate, communicate and interact within their school, home and community in an acceptable manner)
Students are accepted based upon the initial assessment and/or consultation with staff, and approval by the director. Call for consultation and assessment session.
What to Expect?
- A battery of developmental tests is administered to each child.
- Assessments are standardized norm-referenced tests.
- Competency based checklists, which examine the child’s performance.
Assessment takes approximately ninety minutes immediately followed by a parental conference relating the results and recommendations. From the Initial Assessment results, an Individual Prescriptive Program is developed.
Each Individual Prescriptive Program (IPP) can include the development of any of the following:
- Self-Esteem
- Attention Span
- Social Skills
- Language Facilitation
- Manipulative – Fine Motor Skills
- Handwriting Skills
- Gross Motor Skills used in play
- Physical Education and Sports
- Balance
- Ocular Motor Control
- Sensory Processing Skills
- Motor Planning
- Integration of the Primitive Postural Reflexes
- Facilitation of the Righting and Equilibrium Reactions
- Vestibular System
