Did you know that November is also Fall Prevention Month?

Falls are a totally normal and super important part of growing up! πŸ˜„ We always want to keep our children safe and sound, but sometimes, falling down is just our bodies trying to learn something new.

However, there are still ways for you to keep your children safe. From proper footwear to removing hazardous items around the house, to physio!

Kids Physio can help with:

🟒 Balance training
🟒 Strength training
🟒 Pain management
🟒 Endurance training

Are you noticing your baby is now staying more upright while sitting 🧘, and using their hands βœ‹to play with different toys?

This demonstrates trunk stability! Which means they are not needing their hands for support anymore in the sitting position πŸŽ‰

After babies have developed more strength and maturity in their postural control in static (still) sitting, they are ready to move on to challenging and practicing their dynamic balance - maintaining their sitting balance while moving in and out of their base of support!! 🀩

One way to build the skill of dynamic sitting balance is to place toys/objects βšΎπŸ¦– in front of your baby. We recommend small and simple things that can be easily picked up! This encourages reaching, picking up the toy and then playing using both hands - which are now off the support surface!

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, which honours the lost children and survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. It’s a day to reflect on the learning and unlearning we are doing individually and as a community, and a day to look forward to the many actions we must continue to take to contribute to the reconciliation process.

We invite you to join us in taking the time on this day β€” and every day β€” to acknowledge and better understand the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of the residential school system. As a non-Indigenous organization and settlers on this land, we are committed to listening and learning about the truth. This recognition and commemoration is a vital component of the reconciliation process.

Tandem balance is a fancy word for balancing with your feet πŸ‘£ along a line!

Working on balance is super important for children to stay strong on their feet during everyday fun activities, especially at school! Between running around, playing with friends, going to the park, or playing sports, it's important for them to have great balance to engage in play!

Start by standing still on the spot with one foot in front of the other, and walk in a straight line by placing the other foot in front! It is harder than it looks, so don't be afraid to keep your arms out to help! 🀸

To make tandem balancing fun at KPG, we like to incorporate it into obstacle courses for children to cross - especially in the game "floor is lava" πŸŒ‹! We challenge them to safely reach the other side (while doing their exercises) without falling into the hot lava!!

If you have any concerns about your child and their ability to balance themselves, or any other type of development concerns, book an assessment today at kidsphysio.ca/BOOK

Kids are getting ready to go back to school, so we’re here to share some tips as we enter a new school year!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Today we’re starting with BACKPACK TIPS:
πŸŽ’ A backpack should not weigh more than 10-15% of your child’s body weight
πŸŽ’ Size matters! Don’t choose a backpack that is too big
πŸŽ’ Wear both straps
πŸŽ’ Use the waist belt and chest strap to help reduce strain on the neck & shoulders
πŸŽ’ Distribute the load evenly
πŸŽ’ Tighten straps so the backpack sits high on the hips
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you aren’t sure if your child’s backpack is fitting properly, bring it along to your next physio appointment and we can make sure it’s fitting properly! πŸ‘
