I am producing this video series with my co-instructor, Myla Sunshine, who is a beautiful girl who has low tone and Down syndrome. She lives 250 miles from my house. Her parents were nice enough to allow me, a perfect stranger, to come in and share their daughter with the world. Thank you, again. My name is Amy Sturkey. I am a pediatric physical therapist from the United States. I hope to follow Myla as she develops. I hope to teach ideas to help her learn to move, crawl, sit and walk. I started this video series after questions came in from all over the world from people seeking assistance in helping children with low tone. The ideas I teach in this video are not appropriate for a much weaker child than the one featured in this video. I hope you find this idea useful and simple.
I have followed Myla since she was 6 months old. I have posted these videos over time chronologically. Here is the entire playlist:

Daily u give her therapy .because my son has same problem of low tone his 3 years no wbut still he can't walk properly. I called my therapiest once in a week.because of covid I didn't called her.

[@pediatricPTexercises]

Actually, I don’t do weekly or daily therapy with Myla. I visit her once every couple of months Just to do these videos. However, her playlist might be helpful for you. I started following her when she was six months old and now she’s over four years old. So, hopefully these videos will help you.

3 year old still can’t jump. Where would you start?

[@pediatricPTexercises]

I would start by finding a local pediatric physical therapist who can help your child. In the meantime, maybe this playlist will help you.
