I read a post about children who let the mom/dad do everything for dressing and got to thinking. I know we can offer lacing activities and toys that have a zipper to play with, but WHAT IF we created a low-level "try it yourself" bulletin board and had it out all the time on the wall with buttons, zippers, and some lacing strings?
I would have to get extra creative to know how to accomplish this, but I know I could use a jacket. Cut 2 lines through the "board or foam board" going up and down the length needed to get the jacket through. The back of the jacket would be through the board and the board would be screwed into the wall instead of hung by a nail so it's firm again the wall. The jacket then would have both front sides showing through the board and would be able to be zipped up "through" the bulletin board and wouldn't fall off. It's just an idea, but I think it is creative. I'm not sure how to go about the lacing, but the same concept would be used for a jacket with buttons, snaps, or a zipper.
