Gross Motor

“Watching a child makes it obvious that the development of mind comes through his movements.”

– Dr. Maria Montessori

Gross motor skills significantly impact a child's daily life. From crawling to walking, climbing, jumping, balancing, and lifting, these skills boost confidence with meaningful play, strengthening muscles and enhancing coordination. This will all support practical work like dressing, food preparation, problem-solving, household chores, and more, bringing immense satisfaction to the child.

Explore resources like the Balance Beam, Pikler Labyrinth, and Climbing Triangle to support your child's journey.
