25.01.2022 Toy blocks Toy blocks (or building blocks) are super fun to play with and even more fun when you knock them over We like to incorporate toy blocks at play time, as it helps to improve and develop fine motor skills, hand eye coordination, spatial reasoning, engineering skills and grows the capacity for creative and divergent thinking.... - - - - #kidsphysio #GoldCoast #GoldCoastPhysio #sensoryplay #adolescent #paediatric #paediatricphysio #physiotherapy #physio #Children #mobility #coordination #earlyintervention #finemotorskills #DevelopmentalDelay #DownSyndrome #CerebralPalsy #Autism #ADHD #Neuromuscular #IntellectualDisability #toys #blocks #toyblocks #buildingblocks #finemotorskills #play See more

24.01.2022 CORE STRENGTH Many parents have goals for their children to develop their core! But what does this really mean? Core strength comes from many muscles including your abdominals (or six pack muscles!) They assist you to maintain a stable base when sitting, standing and moving into different positions. Youre core is always on Its not necessary to do 100 sit ups a day to achieve core strength but encouraging the muscles to switch on and off at the correct times during movement. Physiotherapy can help to identify your needs for core strength and function

23.01.2022 Single leg balance An important gross motor skill that is often over looked! Did you know every step we take, we balance on 1 foot?! Its a tricky one to practice - we love using our launcher to promote weight transfer onto single leg in therapy

18.01.2022 Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) ‘Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is an abnormal development of the hip joint. In children with DDH, the ball at the top of the thigh bone (called the head of the femur bone) is not stable within the socket (called the acetabulum). The ligaments of the hip joint that hold it together may also be loose. Sometimes, the hips can dislocate early in life and this may not be noticed until your child starts to walk. Treatment may ...involve use of a brace, a non-surgical procedure under sedation, or an operation to correct the dysplasia and hip position. DDH used to be called congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH).’ Paediatric Physiotherapist’s can assist your child through their DDH treatment and management. Ensuring they have the best support to continue to grow & develop post intervention Source. rch.org.au

18.01.2022 Let’s play ball Playing with a textured ball can help improve your child’s touch perception, as it increases the brain’s ability to understand (perceive) information coming from the skin, particularly the skin on the hands. The hands are used to register sensory information and then the brain processes this information to guide the hands during an activity.... - - - - #kidsphysio #GoldCoast #GoldCoastPhysio #sensoryplay #adolescent #paediatricphysio #paediatric #physiotherapy #physio #Children #mobility #coordination #earlyintervention #finemotorskills #DevelopmentalDelay #DownSyndrome #CerebralPalsy #Autism #ADHD #Neuromuscular #IntellectualDisability #balance #ballskills #hands #touchperception #finemotorskills #play

08.01.2022 Behavioral theories of child development focus on how environmental interaction influences behavior and are based on the theories of theorists such as John B. Watson, Ivan Pavlov, and B. F. Skinner. These theories deal only with observable behaviors. Development is considered a reaction to rewards, punishments, stimuli, and reinforcement. (Very Well Minded)
