Fun Animal Walks for Input

Tuesday, July 27, 2010 by Melissa Bradley

Imitating "animal walks" provide opportunities for your child's sensorimotor development building strength, motor planning skills, coordination skills, and providing organizing sensory input. They can be done at home, school, on the playground, or in the house.  Some fun "animals" for your child to imitate can include:

- Bear: arms and legs straight w/bottom in air
- Crab: belly up w/bottom off the floor; hands and feet on floor
- Cat:   on all fours arching back up high and low
- Leap frog: squat and jump high and forward
- Duck: squat and flap arms walking forward
