ADHD Support at Skids and Giggles Toilet Training — NSW

Skids and Giggles Toilet Training lists fine motor skills as a service area. For children with ADHD and attention difficulties, fine motor development can be relevant because coordination challenges, fidgeting, and difficulty sustaining focus on detailed tasks sometimes co-occur with attention concerns. Fine motor work typically involves activities designed to build hand strength, dexterity, and control—skills that support writing, fastening clothing, and self-care tasks including toileting independence.

According to its listing, Skids and Giggles Toilet Training may incorporate fine motor activities into sessions. Examples of interventions in this area commonly include threading or bead work to build finger isolation and control, scissor skills practice to develop hand-eye coordination, and pencil grip exercises that support writing readiness. Some clinics also use fidget tools or manipulative activities to help children channel restlessness while practising precision movements.

It is important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or attention difficulties—diagnosis requires assessment by a medical professional. However, an OT can support children by addressing functional skills that may be affected.
