My ds5 is a voracious climber.
He climbed out of his pushchair, even while strapped in at six months. He climbed as soon as he could crawl. He is very very physically strong and agile. He scares kids that are years older with his climbing.
He ran up and down a balance beam at tumble tots at eigteen months. He scares the living daylights out of everyone at the park. He does trolley acrobatics at sainsburys and can do somersaults,head stands and handstands. He is scary. I always thought that it was related to intelligence.
He runs too. He easily outruns me, which is why i hold his wrist, not his hand.
He never walked, he ran at ten months and has not looked back since. He does laps at home and sometimes I take him out and make him lots of laps just to wear him out.
He swings, he runs, he climbs and he talks!
Once, when he was about eigteen months and in a rear facing car seat I was driving my mother. He was chatting away and commented on something that lead me to turn around. He had climbed out the car seat and was sitting on the rear parcel shelf. I delayed putting him in a car seat that he can undo as he just climbs out. Another time I had left him in the car seat, with a harness to fetch somethimg from my house. As I came out the house I saw him in the garden. He had climbed out and into the front seat so he could get out, thus rendering child locks useless. He climbs everything everywhere and cannot be left alone. He has climbed walls out of gardens.
