I am taking care of a little boy whom I am entirely in love with already (it's my second week). I know that I cannot heal him or cure him, but my mission personally is to make his life more. I love when he laughs, though it's rare, and smiles. But I have no idea what kind of activites would be appropriate or that he would get a lot out of? If you can help, that would be great.

He is so lucky to have someone like you who appreciates him for who he is. Here are some activities that my OT does and that we do here at home with him. We bounce him on a big ball, he loves to draw on a little dry erase board, he loves the minitrampoline at school, he likes to string beads onto a shoelaces, and he also likes to play with slime (this has helped his hand sensitivity quite a bit).
