How can I help my toddler improve their balance and stability on their legs?

Asked 2 years ago

We play catch quite often and its very fun especially when our dogs get involved. But I'd really love more activities that we can do every day. Even small activities they can do alone. Can someone suggest anything?

I'd suggest using walkers. It gets toddlers used to taking steps. The added support from the walker helps them to just focus on their steps rather than balance. So they'll be building up muscles in their legs and in turn assisting their balance!
