Webinar recording - What are infantile reflexes and how do they impact gross motor and fine motor development?

Welcome to the recording of our webinar on Infantile Reflexes and their profound influence on gross and fine motor development.

In this 1 hour webinar recording, I chat about the current delays that we are seeing in children's reflexes, I shed light on their critical role in shaping a child's motor skills, and most importantly I provide you with strategies for what you can do to help.

Whether you're a parent, caregiver, educator, teacher or therapist, this webinar will empower you with knowledge that can positively impact the lives, learning and development of children.

Infantile reflexes are a crucial piece of the puzzle when it comes to understanding the development of a child's motor skills. Their presence, integration, or persistence can significantly impact a child's ability to crawl, walk, run, write, and engage in various physical activities.

By the end of this webinar, you will have a comprehensive understanding of infantile reflexes, their impact on both gross and fine motor skills, and practical insights into how to support children in their motor development journey.
