clumsiness - anything we can do?

dd1 is 3.10, and very clumsy - dropping stuff, bashing into things, breaking things, spilling.

I was also a clumsy child, and so I've been reluctant to nag her to "be more careful" as my parents did with me.

However, I would prefer things not to be bashed and battered quite so more, and for her to trip and stumble less often. Is there anything I can do to improve her coordination?

You need to work on her gross motor and spacial awareness.

Go onto the primary board and ask MRZ she will have some advice

toddler gymnastics is good for both fine and large motor skills.
