Kendrick Kendrick is 18 months of age and recently joined an child care program. He frequently plays with big balls and big trucks. He will ride on toys and push items such as shopping carts. He will often fill the shopping carts with big blocks and other big toys and push them around. You can frequently find Kendrick at the sensory table. This is his first experience in child care- he has always stayed at home with his mother. He has three older siblings who are 4, 6, and 9. During drop-off and pickup, Kendrick's teacher noticed that his siblings are frequently assisting him or completing tasks for him instead of letting him try to do it himself. Kendrick's teachers have noticed that he has difficulty trying to use a spoon to eat food. Because using a spoon is difficult for him, he will usually transition to eating using a raking grasp. He also has trouble making marks with crayons or markers. He can turn the pages of a foam book, but has difficulty turning the pages of a board book.
