Have you noticed certain delays in your child's motor development?
Motor delays are common in children, but early recognition can optimize outcomes.
Parents and their pediatricians need to look at milestones such rolling over, crawling, walking, and climbing stairs; as well as fine motor skills like grasping objects, putting blocks in a cup, scribbling or creating a stick figure drawing.
By watching kids move and play during physical examinations, you can quickly detect those who need a bit more attention.
Join us as special guest and pediatrician, Dr. Garey Noritz, shares important information regarding motor development and potential problems that may arise in your little one.
