How it works

Now let's try a fun challenge! While your child is standing at the counter, place a colorful cup or toy just out of reach on the counter. See if they will reach for it while maintaining their standing position.

Let's try the big moment! While your child is standing at the counter, gently encourage them to let go with one hand. You can hold out your hand for them to touch or offer a toy.

Let's celebrate any standing moments! If your child shows readiness, encourage standing between you and the counter. Kneel facing your child with your hands out for support.
