My little girl is 3.8. She's always been over excited etc but recently she just never seems to walk anywhere. She's constantly bouncing up and down. It doesn't seem to matter what I say either. It's like she can't control it.

Anyone else experienced this?

Yes! Can run, skip, hop, ride scooter etc but totally unable to walk anywhere!

Have always supposed it to be normal :)

One of my favourite occupations when I'm waiting for some-one in Westfield's is to watch children following their parents.

I can assure you that very few of them are walking Grin

I often wonder what their antics would look like if they were suddenly turned into adults.

Ministry of silly walks comes to mind

Thanks SrStanislaus. You put a very amusing image in my head.Grin

I just have never seen a child so jumpy. It's like she's crossed with a frog.
