my DD is bumping her head all the time freaks me out!! shes just crazy and makes her self dizzy till she falls or climbs things and jumps off!!! so I dont think its just ur ds!
My DD is definatley in the wars more than my DS but she is very tomboyish trying to keep up with him...he was our first born so probably a bit more smothered with care from mum ;-)
DD would fall right off a piece of play equipment, do a elegant roll and land on her feet without even a crinkle on her clothes
DS - SPLAT!
boys more clumiers- why? more distracted/ cant do more than one thing at a time and easily lose concentration on what they were doing at the time
BTW i always found that all kids become clumsy during a growth spurt. The muscles that grow have to learn to co-ordinate and do things that they have never learnt before- that is why kids always go backwards when they are learning something like swimming lessons during a growth spurt!!!
boys also tend to be better a different motor skills to girls at this age- DS got off training wheels quicker than DD, where as DD learnt to whistle, click her fingers and tie shoe laces quicker than DS
there is definately a difference between boys and girls !!
DD is definately less physically capable than DS. She's not as strong or flexible. When she was little she had ear issues though, so she did fall over alot more due to lack of balance. But DS1 is much more of a daredevil and now at almost 3, will do stupid things and take chances that DD won't and never did. She's got more sense than him, lol!! I am sure it will DS1 that I will be taking to hospital first for a broken arm or something like that, though we've gotten through almost 3yrs without a trip to the hospital for him, 4 if you include DD too!
