Week Two:

It’s no secret that preschoolers are full of energy. You can put this energy to use – and help your child build their motor skills, balance, and coordination – by playing games where they imitate animal walks, or simply by being active with them throughout the day.

Get that energy out! Being home with a young one can be overwhelming, but we have some tips to help you navigate your child’s development. Helping your preschooler develop motor skills can be fun and energetic. By imitating animal walks and being physically active, children can work on balance and coordination. 

The Wild Kratts Baby Buddies App is for Wild Kratts fans of all ages from 3 to 8 and focuses on animal care and animal science.
