How it works

First, let's model how to stretch a band open with both hands and slide it over a foot. Say something like, 'Watch me! I stretch it wide so my foot can go through.' Then hand your child a band. Let's see how they responds.

Now encourage your child to try putting a band on their foot. You can say, 'Your turn! How many loops can you get through? One band at a time.' Watch how they manages the stretching and sliding motion.

Now let's reverse the game! Say, 'Now can you take them off, one at a time?' Watch how your child removes the bands—whether they pulls, wiggles, or uses both hands.

Let's wrap up by celebrating and connecting to real dressing. Ask, 'Can you show me how you put on a sock or pants like this?' Or simply count how many loops your child managed.
