Activity of Daily Living Training
Empowering Children to Manage Daily Life with Confidence
Our ADL Training helps children become more independent in essential self-care routines like dressing, eating, grooming, and toileting—building lifelong skills through fun, guided learning.
Teaching kids essential everyday life skills
Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Training is a structured therapy that teaches children how to carry out everyday self-care tasks with independence and confidence. These activities include brushing teeth, dressing, grooming, eating, toileting, and organising personal belongings.
At 7 Senses, we turn these life skills into achievable, engaging milestones using a child-friendly approach. Through hands-on guidance and repetition, children learn to manage their own routines, make choices, and become more self-reliant.
This therapy goes beyond task completion—it nurtures independence, builds self-esteem, and prepares children for real-world responsibilities in both home and school settings.
For kids struggling with daily self-care tasks
ADL Training is ideal for children who face challenges with basic self-care routines. These children may need extra support to develop the independence required for day-to-day functioning.
This therapy benefits children who:
- Struggle with dressing or personal grooming
- Have difficulty using utensils or feeding themselves
- Show poor hygiene habits (like brushing teeth)
- Face challenges with toileting or bathroom routines
- Struggle to organise belongings or manage time
- Need help preparing simple meals
- Find it hard to transition between tasks
- Require guidance with safety awareness (e.g., crossing roads)
- Show delays in developing self-care independence
With the right support, these daily routines can become empowering moments of success.
Practical life training in a nurturing space
At 7 Senses, we focus on helping children build life skills that carry over into their everyday world. Our therapists create structured, personalised ADL programs that make learning routines fun and stress-free.
What we Provide:
- Step-by-step guidance for everyday routines
- Hands-on practice in a safe environment
- Use of adaptive tools and visual schedules

We believe every child deserves the chance to feel capable and independent—our job is to give them the tools, encouragement, and support to achieve just that.
