Description

Tom had some time to catch up on his reading while he was away. He's back and ready to talk about spinning and the importance of vestibular development. Children find all kinds of ways to spin, such as twirling, rolling, somersaulting, and doing cartwheels. All this spinning is essential to developing the vesitibular system and--the hardest task of all--the ability to sit still. To support this growth, we need to provide spaces where children can spin and calibrate their senses.

(Tom ran out of time to talk about whirling dervishes, an example of how spinning can even change one's consciousness, but he wanted to mention it now.)
