Primitive Reflex Integration in Infancy

[@simplewondersacademy]

I majored in child development and not one class talked about primitive reflexes! I have 4 boys and a couple are in elementary school with retained primitive reflexes. I thought I gave them a lot of opportunities to develop, but I’m learning I can do much more. My 4th boy is 5 months old and I want to help him integrate on time, I’m so glad I found your video! It is so helpful.

We definitely need to spread the word! So glad you are finding our information helpful!

Thank you so much i’ve been searching for a simple explanation with examples for weeks! You broke it down just the right amount looking forward to seeing more of your content!

[@HarklaFamily]

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you for taking the time to explain all these and for sharing ways to integrate those reflexes.

[@HarklaFamily]

You're welcome!

If you enjoyed the video and want to dive deeper into primitive reflexes in infancy, you'll love our newest course, Infant Sensory Development 👇harkla.co/isd-course

Hi, what about kid 10 years old..can it be present..and can it be resolved?

[@HarklaFamily]

We see retained primitive reflexes in all ages! It's never too late to integrate primitive reflexes!

How about children after 1 year old? My son is 16 months and i am pretty sure he still has Moro Reflex active. I really want to help him. I have bought your course, is there any information about it?

[@HarklaFamily]

Hi! Our infant and toddler course is designed for children up to age 4 so if that's the course you purchased, it should be very helpful!

[@ladiosaegypcia7429]

You are amazing

[@HarklaFamily]

Thank you!

Are These exrsices good for teenager ?

[@HarklaFamily]

For a teen with retained primitive reflexes, we would want to identify which reflexes are retained and then set up a personalized integration plan! We have a free webinar that teaches more about this! harkla.co/pages/register-primitive-reflex-webinar-2023

Do you have any ways to test for work with toddlers for retained reflexes? This is the only infant video I have found and most of the videos involved testing older kids. There's hardly anything for toddlers probably because they are hard to get to cooperate for a video. 😂

[@HarklaFamily]

Hi! We don't formally test for primitive reflexes younger than 5 years because several reflexes might last until up to 3 years, but also most toddlers aren't coordinated enough to complete specific primitive reflex integration exercises! For infants and toddlers we focus on developmental milestones - we created a digital course for infant and toddler development and there's an entire section on primitive reflexes! harkla.co/products/infant-sensory-development-course

how to join the course plz

Here's the link to our digital courses! harkla.co/collections/courses

[@heatherwallace3397]

Is it okay to do these activities at any age or stage of development? For example if a reflex is needed as a precursor to crawling /walking should we not work on activities to integrate that?

[@HarklaFamily]

Great question! For infants and toddlers, we focus on providing different types of sensory input throughout the day as well as facilitating developmental movements! We have more info in this free webinar if you're interested! harkla.co/pages/infant-sensory-development-webinar-registration

What if child does a weird monkey scoot instead of crawling?

[@HarklaFamily]

always want to encourage crawling on hands and knees!
