clumsy toddlers?

I've noticed Raquel is tripping and falling a lot lately. She's approaching 2 at the end of the month. Anyone notice this with their 2 year old? Or do I just have a super clumsy toddler? She did a total face plant the other day...she's making me nervous!

Re: clumsy toddlers?

  • I find DD to be somewhat clumsy. Any chance her shoes are too small (if she was wearing shoes)? I find DD gets more clumsy as her shoes are getting too small.

    I'm wondering if it's her Crocs....the rubber toe might be catching on the ground.

  • I wouldn't say DS is more clumsy than he used to be, just more active. I mean, they get used to walking, then running and then they start doing things like running up hills and over dirt... it's going to make them fall more.
  • I've heard (can't remember from who now) that some kids get clumsier during growth spurts. No idea if there is truth to that or not though!

    My daughter is very clumsy, too... one of her feet turns in a bit... but CROCS.. they make ME trip.. they do get stuck on the floor and I trip all the time.

  • Ada is no clumsier than before and no clumsier than other toddlers as far as I can tell. Come to think of it, she does fall over more often in her crocs, wesp when she moves up a size and they are a hair big.
