Two Hands Together

Play-based activities for both hands

Two Hands Together gathers play-based OTPlan activities where both hands work as a team, one holding steady while the other does the work, the way they do when cutting, opening a jar, or pulling on socks. Each one uses everyday materials and has an easier and a harder version, so you can follow your child’s lead.

There’s no wrong way to play. Let your child choose, adjust as you go, and stop while it’s still fun.

Skills it builds: Bilateral hand use · Crossing midline · Motor planning
