DD is 2.5, and is hitting all normal developmental milestones. She took her first independent steps just before she turned one, is a climber, and has no obvious balance problems. But she is not yet running properly. She can walk for hours, but only very slowly, and if motivated by a game she can speed up to a slight trot, but definitely not a proper run.
She had some problems at birth so we have to keep an eye on her development. While all seems completely normal so far, I'm wondering if this is something we need to flag up, or if most 2.5 year olds can't run? I can't help noticing at our playgroups that plenty of kids her age and younger are actually running properly.
So when did your toddlers run properly?
