Heavy work is anything a child can to do exert the muscles in their body. This is incredibly regulating to their nervous system and important to incorporate daily. We’ve included some practical life and playful heavy work activities your child or client can do. Children love helping and feeling like an important member of their family and are happy to have a roll in caring for the home. Some activities like “push a ball around the room” may not at first seem like a “fun” activity. If your child is at first resistant, make a game out of it! Anything can be made to be fun with a little creativity and silliness.
