Assessments at
Hapana Fun Factory

If your child has communication or play-related concerns, your Paediatrician, speech and language therapist, or occupational therapist may suggest further evaluation, or your main concern may simply be a speech delay. At Hapana Fun Factory, we offer the ADOS, a trusted observational assessment that helps professionals understand how a child communicates, interacts socially, and engages in play. Rather than being a test your child studies for, ADOS is a series of fun, age-appropriate activities where our trained clinicians observe your child's natural responses to social cues and tasks.

This assessment gives families a clearer picture of their child's strengths and challenges in social and communicative behaviors. Our team has more than 5 clinicians trained and certified in conducting ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) assessments and we also have Paediatricians trained in carrying out the ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised).

Because we understand what an autism diagnosis means for your family, our team takes the time to gather information from multiple sources before confirming anything. There are no blood tests, imaging scans, or similar procedures involved; our assessments are always play-based, combining a detailed history, direct observation, and a review of school and therapy records, sometimes including a visit to your child's preschool or school to build a fuller picture.

The insights help our team and parents plan personalized goals and therapy programs, and families receive a detailed report they can use to access services both locally and overseas. Because early understanding can make a big difference in growth and confidence, ADOS is often recommended when there are concerns about autism spectrum conditions. Beyond diagnosis, our team offers ongoing parent coaching, intensive programmes for families visiting from overseas, and continued support through every transition from preschool to school. At Hapana Fun Factory, our experienced team guides you through the process with care and support.

Communication begins long before the first word, and that is exactly why the Rosetti Assessment is such a valuable tool offered at Hapana Fun Factory. This play-based assessment looks at how babies and toddlers interact, use gestures, respond to sounds, and understand language in natural situations.

Unlike rigid tests, the Rosetti lets your child show what they know in moments of play, eye contact, and responsive behavior. The benefit for families is clarity: you will walk away with a practical understanding of your child's communication development, including strengths and areas where targeted support could help.

Children experience the world differently, and the Sensory Profile helps families and therapists understand your child's unique sensory patterns. At Hapana Fun Factory, this assessment uses caregiver-reported questionnaires and observations to uncover how your child responds to sights, sounds, touch, movement, and daily routines.

Why it matters: This insight is especially helpful when sensory sensitivities affect play, learning, regulation, or social interactions. Understanding your child's sensory preferences can transform daily routines and therapy planning, helping children engage more comfortably at home, in school, and in community activities.

The SNAP-IV is a simple questionnaire used to understand attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity in children. At Hapana Fun Factory, parents or caregivers answer a few questions about daily behavior, while our clinicians interpret the responses to get a clear picture of attention and self-control skills.

Why it matters: This assessment helps identify challenges such as ADHD or related attention difficulties. Early understanding allows parents and therapists to develop strategies that support focus, behavior, and learning, helping children succeed both at home and at school.

The Upper Extremity Evaluation is a detailed assessment of the shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist, and hand, checking movement, strength, sensation, and function. At Hapana Fun Factory, our clinicians assess range of motion, muscle strength, coordination, tone, and fine motor skills to understand how your child uses their upper limbs in daily life.

Why it matters: Difficulties with the upper limb can affect everyday activities like dressing, writing, eating, and self-care. This assessment gives families a clear profile of your child's abilities and challenges, helping to guide a personalised therapy plan that improves function and independence in daily tasks.

The ADL Assessment evaluates your child's ability to manage everyday self-care tasks such as feeding, grooming, dressing, bathing, toileting, and mobility. At Hapana Fun Factory, our clinicians assess this through observation, caregiver interviews, and structured tools where needed.

Why it matters: Understanding how independently your child can manage daily routines helps identify where they may need extra support. This assessment gives families a clear picture of your child's independence level and forms the foundation of a therapy plan focused on building functional daily living skills.

The Assistive Device Assessment identifies the most suitable equipment to help your child improve independence in daily activities and mobility, covering mobility aids, seating systems, communication devices (AAC), writing aids, feeding tools, and other adaptive equipment. At Hapana Fun Factory, our clinicians assess this through observation, functional testing, caregiver interviews, and trial use of different devices in real-life activities.

Why it matters: Choosing the right device makes a real difference in a child's daily independence and confidence. This assessment ensures families receive a safe, appropriate, and effective recommendation, along with training on how to use it well.
