Learning sense of balance

Vestibular training educates and reinforces Taisei’s balance and the sense of spatial orientation which plays an important role with his physical movements and sense of balance.  Many babies learn this naturally when they are in their mothers’ wombs.  We place Taisei in the swing and slowly push him back and forth.  He loves this exercise since it’s probably calming and relaxing.  By the way, we had our friend install the beams in the ceiling where we placed the eye hooks.  Then we bought this really stretchy fabric and simply tied it in a big knot through the rope tied to the eye hook to make a swing that's like a sling.  It works really well and it’s all handmade!!  Welcome to Taisei’s gym.
