How do the brain's hemispheres work together to help you perform everyday tasks like dressing or writing? Discover practical strategies to support your child's bilateral coordination through engaging. We'll talk through the three stages of bilateral coordination—symmetrical, reciprocal, and asymmetrical. Whether it's catching a ball, peddling a bike, or writing, the tips and examples will help you understand these crucial developmental milestones. 

We also delve into recognizing and addressing challenges in motor skill development, such as hand swapping and avoiding midline crossing. From tummy time for babies to arts and crafts for toddlers, and more complex tasks for school-aged children, we've got a range of engaging activities to support growth. Explore how integrating children into household chores and routine tasks can further develop their coordination skills. With fun games like the Hokey Pokey and Simon Says, we highlight the benefits of gross motor activities tailored to different ability levels, creating a supportive and confidence-boosting environment for your child both at home and in the classroom.
