This may be a silly question, but do you do the PT, OT, and ST regularly with him throughout the day? At each visit, I ask the therapist to tell me the two top things that I should be doing with my boy and I make sure that I do those two top things every day at least once a day. I keep a running list on the refrigerator so that the whole family knows what we are working on. It ends up being 6+ things a day and is time consuming but it is something that we all tackle. My boy has big sisters who also work on things with him. In fact, you can specifically ask the therapists for ideas of things that the big sister can do with him. I think that siblings can be great motivators and quite patient and be a great resources in working with out kids.
