How often does your 3 year old fall?

DD falls a lot! We had her eyes rechecked and she is seeing fine with her glasses on. She falls up the stairs, down the stairs, while dancing, running, waking, etc. Anyway, if you were to guess, how many times a day does you 3 year old fall down?

  • I couldn't even count!  Her legs are always bruised.  She mostly trips over her own feet :)

  • At least 3 to 4 times a day on average.  Some days I lose count.  Bruises are always on her shins.   She has excellent vision, she just moves faster than her feet can.

  • Honestly, very rarely. He's extremely coordinated. I didn't realize this until someone else pointed it out to me, so I really don't even know what normal is.

  • My daughter is always in a hurry to do things and with that is falling ALL.OF.THE.TIME.  Her legs are always covered in bruises and occasinal cuts and scrapes.  I think it is pretty common.

  • Like someone else said - too many to count :-P  Mine is very rambunctious.  He's always running and acting crazy in places he shouldn't be!  He is also constantly not paying attention or looking where he is going.

  • Every other day or so? He's great on stairs and stuff. If he falls it's because he was trying to move faster than his feet could or he was climbing something he shouldn't climb. His shoes also seem to contribute...he's much more likely to fall when wearing crocs.

  • My DD is so clumsy that if she is playing/going up or down the stairs/jumping I will say "Catriona" and she immediately interrupts me with "I know mommy, CAREFUL." Tongue Tied

     

    ETA: And then she still falls.

  • All the time everyday, we've got a lot of bruised legs. I've also noticed that in DS's 3-4 year old karate class that during warm-up running time kids are dropping to the ground at an alarming rate. It's like their feet go way to fast for them.  It's kind of funny.
