My younger child walked later and is not as coordinated as my older child was at the same age. Whats going on?
Some children, even within the same family, are better at gross motor skills than others. The child who excels at gross motor skills may be average in the development of fine motor and speech. Another child whose language develops early may be less focused on developing gross motor skills. If you feel your younger child is far behind other playmates the same age, discuss your concerns with your pediatrician.
