What might look like “just play” is actually balance, coordination, strength, and focus all working together.

Our kiddos make this look effortless, but trust us, it takes serious work.

We thought we’d give our new balance “planets” a try… and WOW. 🌎 Let’s just say…our kids make this look a lot easier than it is!

“Playing” in therapy takes real work & strength. Today was a good reminder of just how hard our kiddos are working in therapy every single day.

Our office staff is officially going “all around the world” & gaining a whole new level of respect while doing it! 💙

Is your child walking on their toes? 🩰
Toe walking is when a child walks on the balls of their feet without their heels touching the ground.

This can be common early on, but persistent toe walking may need attention.

Consider a PT evaluation if your child:
🔻Continues toe walking past age 2–3
🔻 Has tight calves or ankles
🔻 Walks on toes on one side only
🔻 Falls often or has poor balance
🔻 Shows delays in running, jumping, or climbing

Early support can help improve strength, flexibility, and walking patterns. 👣

If your child is toe walking, call us today to see how we can help 📲219-983-9675.

Fueling Growing Bodies 🍓

Kids need balanced meals to support growth, learning, and energy throughout the day.

Aim for meals that include:
• Protein for muscle growth
• Whole grains for lasting energy
• Fruits and vegetables for vitamins and fiber

A colorful plate usually means a balanced one!

Six months brings lots of curious hands and exploring! 👶

Around 6 months, you may notice your baby:

• Raking small items toward themselves with their fingers
• Touching or smiling at their reflection in the mirror
• Shaking and banging toys to hear new sounds
• Beginning to self feed small crackers or finger foods

These exciting milestones help build hand skills, curiosity, and early feeding independence. Every grab, shake, and taste helps your baby learn more about the world around them. 💛

Make Mealtime a Family Activity 🍅🍝

Kids who help with meals often become more interested in trying new foods.

Age appropriate ways kids can help:
• Wash fruits and vegetables
• Stir ingredients
• Choose between two healthy options

Cooking together builds confidence and encourages healthy eating habits.
