The Garden to Table programme is changing the way children approach and think about food. All around the country, we want to see children enthusiastically getting their hands dirty and learning how to grow, harvest, prepare and share fresh, seasonal food.
These core exercises for kids may help develop your child's core strength and stability.
Having good core strength can help your child sit well at a desk, and helps provide a stable base for gross and fine motor tasks.
As an occupational therapist and homeschooling mom, I have used these exercises in the schools where I have worked, as well as with my own children, so they are easy to do, and designed to be done by kids who may struggle with coordination and strength.
Not all children will become athletes, but all children do need core stability to be functional in daily school and home tasks.
