Gross motor skills are about the bigger muscles in our bodies (torso, legs, and arms) that help us coordinate and do things like catch a ball, kick a football, run and jump. Lots of people with conditions like down syndrome, dyspraxia and cerebral palsy can struggle with these aspects a lot.
Whilst we don’t all develop these skills at the same time we have many products and a community of ideas to develop gross motor skills. With lots of input from occupational therapists (OTs) about what products can help the most for different conditions we continue to add to our collection.
