4 yesr old and stairs

[Stressedtothehilt]

Hi my dd is 4.2 and still struggles with stairs. She goes up alternating feet/stairs most of the timr but still holds on for dear life and easily goes off balance. Going down stairs she has to do one stair/foot at a time and the slightest thing throws her off balance.

she can run jump skip etc but stairs seem to throw her. Any advice?

My son was the same. What improved him was setting him a little assault course of steps, tubs, buckets both ways up, anything that was strong enough to hold him, changed layout when we did it, said up, down, in, on etc and he enjoyed it and gave him the confidence and balance, he now .walks up stairs as he should. I know it sounds a bit daft but it was a fun way of learning!

Great thanks will give it a try x
