Seeking Young Children (2-5 years old) for OT Toy Lab

By Ashley Mason, February 2, 2023

Child OT Toy Lab Day 

Join the fun! Young children (2-5 years) are needed for Occupational Therapy lab sessions in the occupational therapy (OT) course “Pediatric Evaluation and Intervention”. 

Please consider bringing your child for the morning or afternoon sessions with senior and graduate OT students who plan to observe and practice assessing different aspects of your child’s motor development while also playing with toys that they created! 

 
You may be with your child during the entire lab. Two OT instructors plan to guide the small group of students during the labs. Your child will receive a $20 Amazon gift card per lab session that they participate in.  
 
All the labs are held in the Center for Health Sciences (CHS), room 208 and 212. Take Ithaca College’s main entrance off 96B then take the first right and then immediately take another right into the Visitor Parking lot. CHS is across the street and up the hill right beside Smiddy Hall. Come in the main door and follow the “Kids OT Lab” signs. 
 

The OT toy labs (2-5 years) are scheduled for Wednesday, February 15th at 10:00-11:00 and 1:30-2:30pm. You may choose to participate in one or both lab sessions held on the same day with different groups of students. Parents and/or legal guardians will be required to stay with their child for the duration of time they are on campus. Capacity is limited to 24 lab participants for the day and will be granted on a first come first served basis.  

This lab session is not part of a research study.
