stable joints through weight - bearing)- visual development to quickly shift focus from near to far - hand - eye - coordination - providing plentiful early opportunities for motor planning (
movement problem - solving)- refining balance - integrating the
movement (vestibular), pressure & stretch (proprioceptive), visual and touch (tactile) sensory systems - learning to coordinate
movements where two sides of the
body are doing different
movements - learning to coordinate upper
body and lower
body movements - developing
body awareness and spatial awareness - fostering independence
