Tiny bits of progress at Titiwangsa outing

Went to Titiwangsa this morning. Another 1 1/2 hour play session.

- Spinning tops: noticeably better! He's got the sequence of limb movement & better with balance. Just need to help him get onto the first top & get off the last top as it's a bit too high for him.

- Rope bridge: taught him to walk across sideways like a crab instead (got the idea from another kid doing it). He's definitely not afraid of it anymore, but will need a few more practices with the new sideways walking.

- tunnel slides: still in the phase where he himself wants it. Need to help him get inside the slide. He cant get his legs in without slipping down the slide head first. Only short slides & with a slight twist. Not yet one storey high twisted tunnel slides.

- Weeble wobble: he rocked himself today!!! Better than previously. Showed him gently a few times, with my hands spread wide, placing my thumb at the back of his shoulder blades & little finger near the front of his pelvis. When rocking him, my palms would follow to give him some proprioceptive input.

- Chasing bikes, trikes: still loves to run after/beside them. If it's older kids going fast on their bikes, he'd give up quickly cos he cant run fast enough. With younger kids going slower, he'd run beside them.
