Did you know hopping helps kids develop balance, coordination, muscle strength, body control, and spatial awareness? Plus, it boosts cognitive skills as kids focus on the activity! 🧠✨ Here’s an easy way to teach hopping from Irma J. Rosa Cains, PT, DPT: 1️⃣ Start with your child holding one foot behind them. 2️⃣ Practice jumping in place while holding onto something for support. 3️⃣ Gradually move to hopping without support—and forward! Hopping isn’t just a workout; it’s tons of fun, too! #Kids
