Description: Heavy work activities are beneficial for children's #self-regulation as they provide proprioceptive input that helps them understand where their body is in space. These activities are also helpful in regulating emotions by providing a positive sensory experience and reducing stress or anxiety. Examples of heavy work activities include pushing or pulling heavy objects, jumping, crawling, and carrying or lifting heavy items. #heavy-work #1 #2 #3 #sensory
