- Understanding the concept of balance and weight distribution
- Developing coordination and body awareness
- Exploring the effects of gravity and centripetal force
- Learning to control and manipulate body movements
To further develop the child's understanding in Science related to the activity, you can encourage them to:
- Practice different variations of cartwheels and observe the changes in balance and weight distribution
- Experiment with different body positions while doing a cartwheel to understand how it affects their movements
- Investigate other physical activities that involve concepts of gravity and centripetal force
