Physical Activity

This activity aims to develop the fundamental movement skills of coordination (reaching, grasping), locomotion (crawling), and balance.

How to Play

During tummy time or while your child is crawling/walking, roll eggs around for them to chase. The oval shape of the egg will encourage reaching, grasping and tracking skills as it rolls in circles and unexpected directions.
