During our assessment, we like to look at how your little one sits while playing on the carpet.
🔍 This often gives us a lot of clues as to how your they’re using (or not using!) their trunk and body to play.

Throwing and catching emerge during the toddler years and becomes more refined as your little one gets to preschool age. 🏀

In our pre-schoolers, we look at throwing and catching to give us more information about your little one’s:
⚽️ balance
⚽️ coordination
⚽️ core strength
⚽️ arm strength

If your pre-schooler is struggling with their ball skills, it can be an indication of underlying weakness or difficulty with coordination.

We ❤️ ball skills because they develop
✨ strength
✨ coordination
✨ planning
✨ balance and
✨ team work between little ones
