Abstract. For children, participation in day-to-day formaland informal activities is a vital part of their development. Participation inactivities is the context in which children form friendships, develop skillsand competencies, express creativity, achieve mental and physical health, anddetermine meaning and purpose in life. Children with cerebral palsy receive avariety of long-term physical and occupational therapy interventions tofacilitate development and to enhance functional independence in movement,self-care, play, school activities and leisure. The issues presented bycerebral palsy children and their families are complex and requireunderstanding of multiple levels of performance. Successful occupationaltherapy intervention of these multiple layers of function requires the use ofmultiple frames of reference, theories and models. Occupational performance andparticipation in different activities, is the main goal of occupational therapyintervention.Key  words: Cerebral palsy,occupational therapy, occupation, participation
