Gross Motor Workshop Videos for Parents and Caregivers

Welcome to our collection of workshop videos designed to help parents and caregivers support their child's gross motor development with confidence.

Gross motor skills are the movements that use the large muscles of the body and are the foundation for everyday activities such as sitting, walking, running, jumping, climbing, balancing and kicking a ball.

In these videos, our physiotherapists share practical strategies, simple activities and expert tips to help your child develop and strengthen these important skills at home and in the community.

Explore the videos below to learn how everyday play can help build strength, confidence and independence while making movement fun for your child.
