however hard she tries she can only go backwards and it's driving her (and me) nuts.

Anything I can do to hasten the onset of forward movement, or at least assuage the agony of a BadgerCub who sees the toy she wants get further away the more she struggles towards it?

Put the toys behind her?

We have carpet, Franny. Also socks with grippy bits. Hadn't thought of shoes though -have got some Daisy Roots type tucked away.

put your hand behind her feet so that her pushes have something to work against - i know it's a not a long term solution but it might make min badger cub happy temporarily (how do you spell that word?)
