🐻 Movement Monday: Bear Walks 🐻

Bear walks are a fun and powerful way to get kids moving! 💪 They help build core strength, shoulder stability, coordination, and endurance while supporting overall body awareness.

Perfect for warm-ups, brain breaks, or adding to an obstacle course—plus kids love pretending to be bears! 🐾

Tip: Encourage slow, controlled movements to really work those muscles.

✨ FACT FRIDAYS ✨
What is Crossing the Midline? 🤔🧠

Crossing the midline is a super important developmental skill that helps kids coordinate both sides of their body and brain. It plays a big role in everyday tasks like ✏️ handwriting, 👕 dressing, 👟 tying shoelaces, and 📖 reading.

When children struggle with crossing the midline, it can show up in things like switching hands during tasks, avoiding reaching across their body, or finding coordination activities tricky.

The good news? 🙌 With the right activities and support, this skill can be strengthened—boosting coordination, body awareness, and confidence.

💡 Support early. Build skills. Empower growing minds.

Happy Movement Monday! 😊❄️

For today’s Movement Monday, we’re focusing on shovelling snow — a real-life, functional activity that builds strength, coordination, and endurance while kids help out and have fun outdoors! 💙✨

Shovelling snow helps with:
✨ Full-Body Strength – working arms, shoulders, core, and legs together.
✨ Core Stability & Rotation – using the core to lift, twist, and place the snow safely.
✨ Balance & Coordination – shifting weight and staying steady on slippery surfaces.
✨ Endurance – building stamina through repeated, purposeful movement.
✨ Functional Skills – practicing movements kids use in everyday life.

🔄 How to Make Snow Shovelling Kid-Friendly:
Use a child-sized shovel for better control.
Bend knees and hips to scoop, keeping the chest tall.
Lift with legs and core, not just arms.
Turn the whole body to toss the snow to the side (no quick twisting).
Take breaks and switch sides to work both directions.

💡 Tip:
Make it playful! Pretend you’re clearing a path for penguins 🐧, building a snow fortress 🏰, or racing to see who can make the biggest snow pile (safely!).

Happy Movement Monday! 😊

For today’s Movement Monday, we’re focusing on 90/90 hip switches — a simple yet powerful movement that helps kids build hip mobility, core strength, and body control in a fun and engaging way! 💙✨
90/90 hip switches help with:

✨ Hip Mobility – improving internal and external hip rotation for healthy, efficient movement.
✨ Core Strength & Control – using the core to stay tall and move smoothly from side to side.
✨ Balance & Coordination – practicing controlled transitions between positions.
✨ Body Awareness – helping kids learn how their hips, legs, and trunk move together.

🔄 How to Do 90/90 Hip Switches:
Sit on the floor with one leg bent in front of you and the other bent behind you, both at about 90 degrees.
Sit up tall with your chest proud.
Keeping your feet on the floor, gently switch your knees to the other side.
Try to stay tall as you move—use your core to help control the motion.
Move slowly at first, then build a smooth rhythm side to side.

💡 Tip:
Make it playful! Pretend you’re a windshield wiper, a robot turning side to side, or a superhero swiveling to look for trouble 🦸‍♂️✨

🧠✨ Fact Friday: What is Hypotonia?

Hypotonia refers to low muscle tone, which can make it harder for children to control their movements and maintain posture throughout the day. Kids with hypotonia often need to use more effort to sit, stand, and move, and this can impact both gross motor and fine motor development.

Common signs may include low muscle tone, increased flexibility, delayed motor milestones, and challenges with skills like grasping, feeding, or breathing efficiently. While hypotonia can present differently in each child, early identification is key.

With timely support, physiotherapy and occupational therapy can help improve strength, posture, balance, coordination, and overall functional independence — empowering children to move and participate with greater confidence. 💪

Happy Movement Monday! 😊

For today’s Movement Monday, we’re focusing on penguin walks — a playful and effective way to help kids build strength, coordination, and balance while moving like their favorite wobbly bird! 🐧💙❄️

Penguin walks help with:
✨��Leg Strength - working the hips, thighs, and glutes as kids waddle forward.
✨Balance & Coordination - keeping feet close together helps kids practice controlled, steady movement.
✨Core Engagement - staying upright and stable boosts core strength in a fun way.
✨Body Awareness - encouraging kids to notice how their legs and bodies move while waddling

🐧How to Do Penguin Walks:
Stand tall with your feet close together.
Keep your arms at your sides like little penguin wings.
Take small, wiggly “waddle steps” forward.
Keep your toes pointed slightly outward and your belly strong.
Go slowly at first, then try going a little faster!
Try waddling forward, backward, and side to side for extra fun.

💡Tip
Make it playful! Pretend you’re “waddling across the ice,” “carrying a penguin egg on your feet,” or “marching with your penguin friends on an
Arctic adventure 🐧💙❄️

Keeping our bodies steady helps kids learn, play, and feel confident in everyday activities! ✨

Postural stability is the foundation for writing, sitting upright, participating in sports, and so much more. Occupational therapists use fun, meaningful activities to help strengthen core muscles, improve balance, and boost coordination—so kids can move, focus, and thrive. 💪🧠💛
