Little Bear

I decided this summer it would be nice to work on some therapy for Little Bear as well.  He still has near to zero upper body strength still.  It is all he can do to life his head off the floor when he is laying down.  It was suggested that we use a small trampoline.  We have tried our big trampoline but it scares him and he doesn't like it. 

This week after he has his fun in the pool (which is also great exercise for him) I have been putting him on the trampoline by himself and trying to get him comfortable with it.  I encourage him to stay in the center of it and he has done really well.  He gets cold quick in the pool and due to his summer cold he has right now, he doesn't stay in the pool for much time and then I pull him out as he shivers. 

Today was the first day I feel like he is really enjoying the trampoline and when I asked him if he is having fun he says he is!!  He is actually getting his feet in the air and I am thrilled that he is taking a liking to it because I think it will be really good for him!

wow, he's got air!
