Walk Like an Elephant

Parent and child pretend to be elephants by walking on all fours with hips held high, strengthening upper and lower body muscles while practicing balance. The agent coaches the parent to observe the child's core stability, weight shifting, and coordination during this imaginative gross motor play.

Free to do together whenever you like.

What you'll need

Clear floor space large enough for parent and child to move on all fours. Comfortable clothing that allows movement. No materials needed.
