Supporting Gross Motor Skills Through Play

This practical course helps parents and caregivers understand gross motor development and support it through simple, screen-free play. It covers the key movement skills children develop, what progress can look like at different stages, and how everyday activities can build balance, coordination, strength, confidence, and body awareness. You will learn how to set up safe play opportunities at home and outdoors, adapt activities to your child’s needs and interests, and recognise when it may be helpful to seek professional advice.
