Children with learning disabilities have a significantly higher level of primitive retained reflexes compared to other children (Hickey & Feldhacker, 2021). When we think of reflexes, we may envision being tapped on the knee at the doctor's office, or yanking our hand away from a hot stove. These reflexes allow our bodies and brains to complete motor movements without having to consciously think about it. Primitive reflexes are named for the part of the brain in which they originate - the primitive brain (or brainstem). In typically developing children, these reflexes are automatically demonstrated when they are presented with specific stimuli. Each reflex serves a developmental or evolutionary purpose. However, if integration does not occur, a list of involuntary symptoms that impact the trajectory of development may persist. This resource was created by two pediatric occupational therapists to serve as a digestible, informative resource on primitive reflexes, signs and symptoms of retention, and activities and exercises to encourage intervention. This download includes: General overview of primitive reflexes Causes of retained reflexes Signs of retained reflexes Integration intervention exercises (including notes and considerations!) Degrees of reflex retention Play positions to encourage integration Reflexes included: TLR, STNR, ATNR, Spinal Galant, Moro -- Your download and use of this product implies understanding of the Terms of Use, which can be found on the second page of this document. -- ✦ DIGITAL DOWNLOADS INSTRUCTIONS: Please note that the Etsy app does not support downloads.
