• Put the glove flat on a table and open the cuff up before pushing your hand inside.

Note: These movement demonstration videos have been designed to help children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD; dyspraxia) learn how to put on gloves successfully. The videos show a movement demonstration for putting on gloves, performed by a typically developing child model and recorded from a first-person viewpoint. A qualified occupational therapist instructed the child model how to perform the movement demonstration to ensure that an appropriate technique was demonstrated. The videos are free for use by dyspraxic people, parents, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, teachers, or anybody else who would find them useful for supporting the learning of dressing skills in children with dyspraxia/DCD.
