PONY Rides at living room
After watching a movie or see the pictures of horses or pony we believe your toddler should be interested with this kind of animal. She is fascinated but we bit wary if your toddler rides the real thing. Give her a leg up on balance skills by playing the pony part yourself.
Get down on your hands and knees and let your toddler “ride” on your back or shoulders. Tell your toddler to have hang on tight and be ready to grab a leg if she starts sliding. To help her learn to adjust her balance, lower your upper body of the floor, raise it (not to high!), or wiggle from side to side.
It is pretty If you can add music, sing a song such as “Trot Little Pony” as you crawl.
I love you DADDY or MOMMY! You can start your little cowgirl’s riding lessons early by doing some of the leg work in your living room.
Skill Spotlight
The balance of your toddler is not fully developed even though most of the toddler with this focused age (two year old) can walk pretty well. By pretending to be a pony horse and crawl and wiggle your way through the house, your toddler can be learning how to find and keep her center of gravity. Your toddler also learn and stretch her imagination by pretend that she is riding a pony horse. This skill spotlight hopefully can increase your toddler balance, gross motor skill, and imagination.
Other tips: Mom and dad may change the object of the ride with another animal such as buck, dashing steed, elephant, big bird, got, cow, etc. It is very nice if you can make a sound of the animal while your lovely toddler rides you.
