🐣Using things around the house like a broomstick, soup cans, towels, pillows, boxes, plastic bins, and step stools, you can create an obstacle course like this for your child to do at home! They can balance an egg on a spoon and try to complete the obstacle course without dropping it. This will work on their balance and coordination, and improve their ability to go up and down steps/stairs. #upandmovinpedtherapy #springthemeobstaclecourse
