Heel-to-Toe Twister
Parent guides child through a playful heel-to-toe walking game using colored shapes on the floor. The agent coaches the parent to observe the child's heel-to-toe walking pattern, balance during complex foot placement, and coordination while following multi-step instructions — building foot strength and walking coordination.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Clear floor space for walking. Cardstock paper with red triangle, blue square, and yellow circle drawn on it (can be multiple sheets). Markers: red, blue, yellow. Both parent and child should be barefoot or in socks for better grip.
How it works
The 3-step guide, with what to look for at each step, is for signed-in parents.
