In this brief segment Hallie Bulkin outlines a pragmatic approach to boosting caregiver compliance with home therapy. She advocates teaching caregivers to embed very short (≈5 minutes) therapeutic activities into everyday moments—car rides, bath time, dinner—focusing on non‑feeding tasks. By avoiding the term “homework” and instead framing the practice as a simple, low‑burden “carryover,” she aims to increase caregiver confidence, reduce resistance, and make the experience feel rewarding for families.

Like you were saying, like find the thing and then teach. Like I like to teach them how they can implement it into their everyday life. Is this something we could do in the car on the drive home from daycare? Is this something that we can do in bath time? Is this something we can do in dinner? But maybe it's not a feeding thing, right? So it's not related to feeding, right? And so it's just like figuring out how they can implement this, what seems so simple but so impactful thing into their daily life, 5 minutes a day max. Like you're gonna get people who are way more compliant. But it's making everybody feel like good about themselves and that like, you know, they're doing that like homework, quote unquote. I hate calling it homework, but the carryover. Yeah, yeah. This has been amazing.
