You do have to pick through for the appropriate information for where you are from as this book is centred around the American system I believe and we don’t get the same kinds of support through the health systems, but the practical information is very helpful.

You do have to pick through for the appropriate information for where you are from as this book is centred around the American system I believe and we don’t get the same kinds of support through the health systems, but the practical information is very helpful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best OC Book EVER!!! Worth every penny. *by M***L on 12 February 2020* NA ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Informative! *by K***L on 17 February 2024* I’ve read lots of books to help my daughter, who can’t use the toilet at 6.5 years. We’ve also been enrolled in OT for a year. This book has hints about the toilet, including using food dye in the toilet bowl, sitting backwards, drawing etc. Innovative ideas I have not come across before - and the tips work! This book is well worth the money, and takes a kind approach towards kids. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Parent's Guide to Occupational Therapy for Autism and Other Special Needs - Occupational Therapy Activities for Kids: 100 Fun Games and Exercises to Build Skills - The OT's Activity Book: Worksheets created by a pediatric occupational therapist for fine motor, visual motor, and visual perceptual development --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/255535495-the-parents-guide-to-occupational-therapy-for-autism-and-other](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/255535495-the-parents-guide-to-occupational-therapy-for-autism-and-other) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-08*
