⭐🐒 PRIMITIVE REFLEXES: WHAT ARE THEY, AND HOW DO THEY AFFECT YOUR CHILD? 💛

Have you ever wondered why your child startles easily, struggles with balance, or has a hard time staying focused? 🤔 Primitive reflexes are automatic movements babies are born with, and as children grow, these reflexes typically fade as new skills develop.

When certain reflexes remain active longer than expected, they may affect everyday activities and development. 🧠✨

In our latest blog, we explore the MORO reflex, signs your child may still have it, and activities that may help support regulation and body awareness. 💛

Primitive reflexes are automatic body movements that all babies are born with. These movements help babies survive, grow, and learn during their first years of life. Reflexes help babies eat, breathe, grab toys, roll over, and stay safe. As babies grow, their brains learn new skills, and these refle...

🌀🐒 What do we do at Monkey Mouths when it's International Top Spinning Day? We turn it into a developmental activity—but we make it FUN! 🎉💛

A simple spinning top can be a whole lot more than just a toy! 🌀 While kiddos play, they can practice important skills like:

🤏 Fine Motor Skills: Grasping, positioning, and releasing the top
👀 Hand-Eye Coordination: Coordinating what they see with how they move
🧠 Motor Planning: Figuring out how to get that top spinning
💪 Bilateral Coordination: Using both hands together
🎯 Focus & Problem-Solving: Experimenting, adjusting, and trying again!

And the best part? Kids get to build skills while doing something they LOVE! Because at Monkey Mouths, we believe learning happens through meaningful play, and sometimes the simplest toys create the biggest opportunities. 🐒✨

Looks like play. Works like therapy. 💛
