Building Blocks for Movement: The Importance of Physical Literacy in Pediatric Rehabilitation

This session will explore what physical literacy means in the context of pediatric rehabilitation and individual movement journeys. As a holistic construct, physical literacy emphasizes the confidence, competence and motivation to engagement in movement, which is foundational in shaping one’s lifelong relationship with movement. We will discuss why physical literacy matters for long-term wellbeing and positive development, share success stories, along with discuss practical strategies practitioners and families can use to foster quality movement experiences across a range of abilities. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to embed physical literacy enriched approaches into everyday treatment and care planning to support children of all abilities in reaching their full potential.
