Rolling, rolling, rolling
In the early childhood years we are working to help children develop strong muscle tone. If a child's body is too loose (low tone) then his movements might be slow and lack strength, making the things we find easy and natural, more difficult. One of the most popular tools for developing these core body muscles is this big red roller. You can see the expression of both anticipation and delight on Matty's face as he rolls forward to the ground. Reaching the mat below, he uses his arms to resist the weight of his own body and maneuver himself back to the mat.
