For many children, especially those with ADHD, autism, or learning differences, completing even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, occupational therapy sessions are designed to help children improve attention, planning, and task-following skills—essential for success in both school and daily life.

The image above captures a child carefully watching as an adult models a complex task using building pieces. This moment represents one of the core goals of occupational therapy: helping children break down larger tasks into manageable steps they can follow, complete, and take pride in.

What Are Executive Functioning and Task-Following Skills?

Executive functioning refers to a group of mental skills that include:

  • Starting and completing tasks

  • Following multi-step directions

  • Organizing and planning actions

  • Shifting attention between steps

  • Managing frustration or distractions

Children who struggle in these areas may avoid tasks, rush through activities, or become overwhelmed with transitions.

How OrbRom Center Builds These Skills Through Therapy

At OrbRom Center’s Occupational Therapy Program, therapists use hands-on, motivating activities like construction kits, sequencing games, and puzzles to target executive functioning.

Our sessions are structured to:

  • Teach visual and verbal instruction following

  • Support goal-setting and self-monitoring

  • Improve attention span through engaging tasks

  • Use visual schedules and timers for organization

  • Encourage independent problem-solving and resilience

We guide children from passive participation to active ownership of their learning process.

When Parents Should Seek Support

If your child:

  • Struggles to start or complete homework

  • Becomes distracted easily during structured tasks

  • Needs frequent reminders or prompts

  • Avoids step-by-step activities or gets frustrated midway

…they may benefit from occupational therapy focused on executive functioning and task management. You can also request a developmental or learning assessment to gain clearer insight into their needs.
