Sitting balance is a big milestone for babies and it’s about so much more than just sitting up!

When working on their independent sitting, your little one is building core strength, postural control, and coordination needed for reaching, playing, and eventually crawling.

One of my favorite tools? A peanut ball! Gentle bouncing or rocking on the ball challenges your baby’s balance in a fun, engaging way while activating those important trunk muscles. It also helps improve body awareness and reactions to movement.

Mr. Kiwi approves!

The core is your child’s “Central support system” and the building block for all gross motor skills 💪🧩

Not just your tummy muscles, your core includes muscles of the back, hips, shoulders, and tummy to help stabilize the body so your little ones arms and legs can move with control.

Does your little one not quite have the confidence to stand on his or her own yet?

Are they standing but very reliant on their hands to hold themselves self up?

Try using posterior support- guide them in standing against a wall or couch allowing them to use their hands for play and activate those muscles needed for upright standing💥
