Pumpkin Balance!
Can your child walk the line while balancing a small pumpkin (or ball!) on their head? 👣
This simple fall activity works on balance AND core strength. A strong core helps children feel more stable and supported during everyday activities like sitting at a desk, getting dressed, climbing stairs, riding a bike, and playing on the playground.
So grab a pumpkin, find a line, and let the balancing begin! 🎃💪
