065 Play Schema Series - Rotation 101
The reason spinning is actually good for your child (Rotation Play Schema) Is your toddler constantly spinning, twisting taps, rolling wheels, or obsessing over anything that turns? It’s not chaos, it’s the Rotation Play Schema. In this episode of Demystifying Child’s Play, we unpack why children are drawn to spinning and circular movement, what their brains and bodies are learning, and how rotation play supports maths, science, problem-solving, balance, and body awareness. You’ll also discover how rotation links with trajectory play, why this behaviour is developmentally appropriate, and how to move from frustration to confidence by supporting it safely. If you’ve ever wondered why your child won’t stop spinning, this episode will change how you see toddler behaviour forever!
