It is important for your child to change position throughout the day to support physical development. Some positions to alternate between include sitting, sidelying, lying on his/her back (supine), lying on his/her stomach (prone). This document shows some supported sitting positions. Different supported sitting positions provide different opportunities for your child to work on core strength, balance, head control, etc. during play. Provide enough support to your child’s trunk and head so that they can comfortably and safely keep them upright.
