“Gut Check”
- Sit on the floor and allow your child to lie face-up on your extended legs. Bring your child’s feet up toward your chest, then quickly push them away, encouraging resistance.
- As strength and balance build, prompt your child to stand on one foot for 2-3 seconds (allow your hands to be held).
- As strength and balance build, use a sit-on scooter without side rails.
- When appropriate, have your child climb up the slope of a slide (give guidance for safety).
