He bends at the knees, bounces up and down and stomps one foot and thinks he's jumping. I think it will be a while since he is so cautious.</p> <p>At daycare they play lots of jumping games and his teachers tell me he just runs over things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump/page/2#post-2181171 Sun, 17 May 2015 20:30:04 +0000 cat620 2181171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it was around 22 months. He started jumping off the bottom step with both feet, and now he jumps all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2180991 Sun, 17 May 2015 16:11:14 +0000 QBbride 2180991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: I knew it would be soon! Yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2180981 Sun, 17 May 2015 15:43:36 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2180981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dylan has been jumping for a few days now! Funny how that happens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176212 Tue, 12 May 2015 20:15:48 +0000 yoursilverlining 2176212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO will be 3 next month and doesn't really jump - she makes the right movements and excitedly says "I'm jumping!!" but her feet don't leave the ground. She is *extremely* physically cautious though (was a later walker, and even at almost 3 still won't go up/down stairs by herself, will only do it holding hands or a rail and zero interest in climbing anything) so I'm not really surprised, and definitely not worried. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176207 Tue, 12 May 2015 20:01:48 +0000 jaguar 2176207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Georgia's 2y2m and doesn't jump. Does this bend and squat and rise, but feet aren't up off the ground! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176178 Tue, 12 May 2015 19:12:11 +0000 Corduroy 2176178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>26 months and no jumping just a little tip toeing but she's very cautious. A little boy at her daycare does broad jump across the room at 14 months or so. Everyone is on their own timeline but it's really fun to watch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176168 Tue, 12 May 2015 18:58:24 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2176168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: @littlebug @birdofafeather @pinkb: I guess our Jan babes just take things slow! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176135 Tue, 12 May 2015 18:20:08 +0000 pinkb 2176135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Abi will be 2.5 next month and we are still waiting. She has always been on the latter end of things, started walking at 18 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176073 Tue, 12 May 2015 16:57:58 +0000 erinpye 2176073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometime after 2, before 2.5 for DD1. We couldn't figure out why she wasn't jumping, so we gave her something to jump *over* and she did it no problem. I guess she just hadn't seen the objective before then! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2176068 Tue, 12 May 2015 16:45:40 +0000 charlotte 2176068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son had low tone and started PT at around 1. Walked at 17 months and is not jumping yet at 2 years &amp; 2 months old. He's getting close though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175914 Tue, 12 May 2015 14:34:09 +0000 MrsF 2175914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: M just started jumping last month (so 31 months - glad I didn't know to worry :wink: ) and now she's obsessed with jumping. She's always been on the later side for physical milestones but it seems like she had a huge developmental leap in the last month and is doing lots of jumping and climbing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175898 Tue, 12 May 2015 14:23:54 +0000 Ree723 2175898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 is behind on this as well. She'll be 3 next month and still isn't jumping. She does a kind of tiptoes bobbing up and down movement with big arm movements but isn't actually getting her feet off the floor. I'm not hugely concerned yet but she also still sits in the W sit all the time (I correct her but she subconsciously goes right back to it a minute later and actually can't balance very well in a cross legged position) so I am wondering if it is all related. I plan on calling our Health Visitor in the next week or two to discuss this further . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175773 Tue, 12 May 2015 13:19:02 +0000 lamariniere 2175773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was maybe 26-27 months.</p> <p>DD is 17 months and is close! She's got the movement, but can't get herself off the ground yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175732 Tue, 12 May 2015 12:59:42 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2175732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 19 months. She's been on the early side for that kind of stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175699 Tue, 12 May 2015 12:45:43 +0000 sarac 2175699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Late, like yours. Mine is late with all her physical milestones too, and then she takes off running. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175630 Tue, 12 May 2015 12:16:12 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2175630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i honestly can't remember with olive, but i know it was late. she too hit all physical milestones late and didn't walk until 18 months. i'm sure it was well into the 2's... and now she won't stop jumping at 3.5! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175625 Tue, 12 May 2015 12:14:08 +0000 QBbride 2175625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: if he is 28 months adjusted I think you're good! He will master it in the next couple months :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175591 Tue, 12 May 2015 11:55:51 +0000 KT326 2175591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>By 18 months he was getting both feet off the ground. But he also started walking at 10 months. Now his favorite thing to do is hop across the room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175570 Tue, 12 May 2015 11:44:35 +0000 daniellemybelle 2175570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 18 months and she jumps a lot but it is not a full two-footed jump. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175484 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:55:03 +0000 birdofafeather 2175484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: @jedeve: same january age and an early walker (10 months), not cautious at all and she still doesn't jump! but i think she thinks she is jumping. we've gone to the trampoline park, practiced jumping, etc, but she still doesn't get off the ground! she bends her knees and goes up and down, but no air. i just kinda laugh and figure she'll get it one day! she usually learns by watching but the girl just cannot figure it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175474 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:51:00 +0000 winniebee 2175474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably 21 mos. All that practice jumping on trampolines at gymnastics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175472 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:49:52 +0000 MrsRcCar 2175472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>N just started jumping around 2.5. Never occurred to me that it was an issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175460 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:45:06 +0000 jedeve 2175460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: my LO has strong gross motor skills in everything BUT jumping. He is the same adjusted age as your LO. (We were in the January board together!) I think I saw him get two feet off the ground this weekend? His big hold up, I think, is that he thought he was actually jumping, even if it was just one foot off the ground!</p> <p>I wonder if girls jump earlier? Different center of gravity? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175424 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:22:18 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2175424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK I just looked up a checklist and the warning sign is not jumping by 30 months. D is 28 adjusted, 32 actual. AND he seems really close... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175414 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:19:02 +0000 rattles 2175414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She's thought she was jumping for 6 months or so, but it's only in the last month or so that she's actually got it. She's 29 months, so maybe 27-28? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175393 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:05:37 +0000 Anagram 2175393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 22 months and tries (because kids in her class at daycare jump a lot when certain songs come on during dance time) but she can't quite get both feet off the ground yet. She's close! I think by 24-25 months she will get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175381 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:00:24 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2175381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say right at 1.5 but that seemed early compared to a lot of other kids. I would say by 2 is around normal and if he was such a late walker later than that might be normal for him. Just keep him practicing and do lots of fun jumping activities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175372 Tue, 12 May 2015 09:54:51 +0000 fairy 2175372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter turns 2 next month and she mastered jumping within the past 3 weeks - started with the one footed bounce but she kept practicing it a LOT and now she gets both feet off the ground almost every time :) If she hadn't been so interested in it, it probably could have been a while though - she saw some older kids jumping around and really wanted to do it since then! She started walking just before 11 months if that matters </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-could-your-lo-jump#post-2175371 Tue, 12 May 2015 09:54:25 +0000 coopsmama 2175371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He could first jump with two feet at around 21 months (which is when he started gymnastics so I think it's related). </p>
