To make sure our little ones are reaching developmental milestones, it\u2019s important to understand everything from cognitive development to joints and bones and even muscle tone.

When you reach down to pick up your child or stretch before a workout, you feel resistance in your muscles. That\u2019s what\u2019s referred to as muscle tone \u2014 the tension you feel in your muscles as you move, bend, or stretch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Muscle tone exists on a spectrum. Some people have high, others have low, but there\u2019s no such thing as the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">perfect<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> muscle tone. Additionally, muscle tone and muscle strength are two different things. If someone has low muscle tone, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean they\u2019re weak, and high muscle tone doesn\u2019t always equal strength. However, when a child has abnormally low or high muscle tone, they can struggle with fine and gross motor movements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is Hypertonia?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hypertonia means high muscle tone (\u201chyper\u201d meaning excessive or increased). When someone has Hypertonia, their muscles are rigid and stiff. It\u2019s difficult for them to stretch, flex, or complete simple movements like touching their toes or balancing on one foot. Young children who have been diagnosed with Hypertonia may have a hard time feeding, reaching for objects, using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2020\/05\/26\/the-power-of-push-pull-toys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>push-pull toys<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2017\/12\/04\/walking-when-why-and-how-babies-start\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>walking<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/babysparks.com\/2020\/12\/15\/how-does-balance-develop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>balancing<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is Hypotonia?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hypotonia means low muscle tone (\u201chypo\u201d meaning under or less).
