You may be surprised to learn that holdingyour toddler's hands above their head to helpthem walk is not always recommended. It can hinder their ability to develop physicalequilibrium, gauge spatial relations, and judge their capabilities.If your child wants you to, you can lightly holdtheir hands at their shoulder height or downby their sides, like the parents in this videoare doing.Another way to support your toddler'sdeveloping sense of balance is to let themwalk barefoot. They get sensory input fromtheir feet that helps them build neuralconnections and sense where they are inrelation to their surroundings. Stay close tohelp them gain confidence in taking steps ontheir own and to encourage them to keepgoing! #crawling #walking #loveveryfamily
