Ever wondered why your kid keeps crashing into you, climbing all over you are wanting loads of hugs?!

Proprioception (or movement breaks) helps us to
✔ understand our position in the space around us
✔ calm down
✔ get going

Movement breaks are a great way to:

✔ improve attention
✔ improve body awareness
✔ decrease defensiveness

Movement breaks include:
✔ Running
✔ Jumping
✔ Climbing

✔ Crashing
✔ Hugging
✔ Pushing
✔ Pulling
