Physically less active child
Hello,
My daughter is 4 years 10 months old. I have a little concern over her physical activities. She seems a little less active than other children her age. Her energies are concentrated more on talking which she does a lot. She loves making up her stories, playing with dolls and all other pretend plays. But not very big on outdoor games. It has also gained some weight during lockdown. She is 3.4" tall and her weight is 18. How do I get her interested more in the outdoor games?
