Does your child climb everything in sight? You’re not alone!
The couch, the playground, or the kitchen chairs, some children seem determined to turn every space in your house into an obstacle course.
While it can be exhausting, climbing is helping your child build strength, balance, coordination, body awareness, and problem solving skills. These experiences help develop their foundation for current and future activities, like participating in sports or keeping up with their peers.
Safety is always important, but it’s helpful to remember that movement is one of the best ways our children can learn about their bodies and the world around them! If you have concerns about your child’s motor skills, our team of physical therapists is here to help!
