Take advantage of the final days of summer and get more from your child’s physical therapy. Summer is the perfect time to turn everyday play into powerful physical therapy for your child. Imagine obstacle courses, water games, and nature hikes—all designed to strengthen your child’s running, jumping, and climbing skills. At Prairie Grit, we believe in “Playing with a Purpose,” so let’s make the most of these remaining sunny days by turning fun into functional development. Explore our top summer activities that not only enhance gross motor skills but also create lasting memories of joy and growth.

Supporting your child’s development extends beyond the therapy sessions. By incorporating playful, purposeful activities into daily routines, parents can significantly enhance their child’s physical progress. At Prairie Grit Therapy, we believe in "Play with a Purpose." Simple exercises like obstacle courses, balance beams, and coordination games can make a big difference. Whether it's setting up a mini obstacle course with household items, playing tug-of-war, or engaging in fun ball games, these activities promote strength, coordination, and balance. Outdoor adventures like nature walks and playground visits also play a crucial role. For more structured therapy or guidance, Prairie Grit Therapy is here to help every step of the way.
