The vestibular system’s physical structures are mostly developed before birth 👶, but the brain pathways that process this input continue to mature through adolescence 🧠.

That development depends on active movement—especially in early childhood 🤸‍♂️.

When kids crawl, spin, jump, swing, and climb, they’re not just playing—they’re strengthening brain connections that support balance, focus, emotional control, and learning 🎯🪁📚.

Today, many children spend too much time sitting, especially with increased screen time 📱🪑.
Studies show that more than half of a child’s waking hours are spent in non-active states.

Without regular vestibular input, key motor and cognitive skills may not fully develop 🚫🧩.

Let’s get kids moving!
