My child hand-stands 500 times a day.

At least...
It's driving me absolutely potty. I'm talking to her feet more than I am her face.
Just repetitive one after another after another handstand.
She does it so much that she's got a six pack starting. She is 6 years old.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Before anyone asks she does do gymnastic classes!
She does it in the lounge, on the bed, the sofa, in the garden, out on walks. Absolutely everywhere and it is very very irritating!

Yes, all the time! She got a six pack in the last lockdown. Other dc is like Hmm and has never been upside down.

Lol sounds wearing. Try and focus on the fact you are not fighting about screen time or trying to get her to do something active. Not handstands but I remember dancing everywhere when I was that age.

The mummy, mummy, mummy, watch this, look at this is.....argh!!!!! Especially while you are trying to work stuff.

She sounds like my DD when she was 6. I was going through my Google Photos the other day and I have so many videos of her upside down. Now at 13 however, she barely emerges from her room and whenever she does, she's the right way up. I do hear thumps from her room, so she still seems to practise, but only in private!
