@OTalk_ Conference #4 for me in 2019! Can’t believe last month just went by so quickly! #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Lets get started with question 1: Do you engage with or participate in any occupations that may not be deemed as “age appropriate”? In addition to #Lego building I (@Kirstie_OT) also play @PokemonGoApp. #OTalk https://t.co/m4X2cJvvGa
#OTalk @OTalk_
Or maybe there are some you would like to engage in? #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @PokemonGoApp Me listen to a particular Hong Kong radio soap. My mom has always said, “Why are you listening to this? Are you trying to copy mannerism of old people living in Hong Kong?” #otalk https://t.co/o1b1crpABo
Gemma P @gemOT18
@OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @PokemonGoApp Watching Disney movies #OTalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Ah ok, so rather than an adult engaging in a “childs” occupation, its the other way around. Great perspective. Is this still something you do not @Tori_Doll_? How was your occupation perceived by others? #OTalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @PokemonGoApp On the flip side, I would say I am an older player for Hearthstone. #otalk

Question 2: What was your favourite occupation as a child? What did you gain from it? Do you still participate in it now? If not, why not? #OTalk https://t.co/sIQdRhM0Ip

@OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @PokemonGoApp I also have recently enjoyed cross stitch something I used to think was done by older people but I think any age can enjoy any activity. I'm also 29 and still have a love for unicorns. #otalk

This is something ive found acorss the Lego community. Its something that transcends generations and can be enjoyed as a family & supports the building of relationships #Otalk

@OTalk_ When I was younger I used to to enjoy #swimming and used to swim for the county when young I still enjoy #swimming today and go most day. I also had a love for #cooking and #baking and my mum inspired me to participate in this occupation I still find this therapeutic #otalk

Question 3: As OTs we know the importance of meaning in occupation, so does age appropriateness really matter to us? #OTalk https://t.co/sPwH9EL8zA
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@OTalk_ I actually just picked up role playing with a placement student recently. I used that to attack his weaknesses before his more intensive 8-week placement. #otalk
Erica Davis @ezzybezzy1989
I think some people feel it's okay to do role play in training my colleague attended a dementia training session which was very too play. People perceptions are very different many feels it's not the social norm. #otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
@colourful_ot Oh Matilda 😊 I loved the Twits and Charlie & the chocolate factory #Otalk
#OTalk @OTalk_
Is this the answer? Do we just feel abit self conscious? #Otalk
Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT
@OTalk_ The radio soap occupation was how I kept up with Hong Kong culture. The Doraemon videos- that was indirectly helping me to keep my Mandarin sharp (since I listen to Mandarin version more) #otalk
Erica Davis @ezzybezzy1989
Age is but a number and we need to remember whats meaningful to me may not be meaningful to someone else. So occupations should be classed as 'age appropriate' they should be person appropriate #otalk

@OTalk_ Q3. I Think It Matters Which Is Why It Is Vital To Speak To The People We Work With To Find Out What Is Meaningful To Them. On The Other Hans, If One Struggles To Identify Occupations Of Meaning, That’s When You Can Explore Without Age Appropriateness Being An Issue. #OTalk
