DS 4.5 has just started school and I've lost count the amount of times he's come out with an accident form because he's been running with friends in the playground and fallen down and grazed his knees 🤦🏻‍♀️
He's tall for his age and when he runs he just looks not very agile 😂
Will he get better at running?!
Is this normal and he's just a clumsy kid when running?!
😂

Ok this is going to sound a bit silly but does he have new shoes and are they a bit big? Is he tripping over the ends of them?

I'm assuming there's nothing else wrong as you didn't mention it

Haha yes he does have new school shoes but I don't think they are ridiculously big 🤷🏻‍♀️
No he's fine otherwise, gross motor skills etc on point and no issues he just seems to be a clumsy awkward runner 😂
