Easter Egg Hunts as therapy

If your child struggles with gross motor skills, you can tailor your Easter egg hunt to provide gross motor challenges:

• Put eggs up high to help your child raise up onto his/her toes
• Put eggs in low places to encourage squatting

• Make your hunt area large and on varying terrain (grass, cement, hills, etc.) to provide challenges while walking

• Carrying a basket will alter your child's center of mass, providing a balance challenge.

Have fun and happy hunting!
