One of my favorite parts about the vestibular system is how differently adults and children tend to respond to movement. 👀
Many adults become more cautious with spinning, heights, fast movement, rollercoasters, or activities that put their head in an upside down position.
Kids, on the other hand, are often actively seeking those movement experiences because their bodies are still developing and learning through movement.
The spinning, climbing, crashing, rolling, hanging upside down, and constant movement are often children getting the input their bodies are asking for.
Once you start understanding the vestibular system, so many things about childhood begin to make more sense. 🌀
