Gross Motor

Flexing Big Muscles with Gross Motor Toys

Unlike fine motor skills which require the use of smaller muscles, gross motor skills involve the large, stabilizing muscles of the body. These are the skills that we associate with activities that engage the whole body, such as walking, crawling, running, playing on the playground and playing sports. Simply put, gross motor skills are needed to help people move independently from one place to another, and accomplishing these skills is a major part of childhood development. Adaptivemall.com carries an amazing array of gross motor skills toys that can be used at home or in the clinic to develop these skills.

Activities that build gross motor skills are those that teach kids balance, strength, coordination, endurance and core strength. Therefore, gross motor equipment often includes elements of whole-body movement - biking, swinging, jumping, running and more. These toys are silent workers, engaging kids through big fun and excitement while quietly allowing them to develop their gross motor skills. Motor development products bring benefits beyond the physical, too. They can also help with cognitive development and social development.

Which Motor Development Toys Do I Need?

Understanding what your child’s gross motor challenges are can help you to identify the best products for your child. Your child’s therapist can often guide you. Bikes and trikes are appropriate and fun for just about everyone especially when they have been modified to offer additional support and assistance for pedaling and steering. Swings, a Climber, or an easy to catch ball are also great ideas for fun and development of gross motor skills. Browse this page for more great ideas!
