As kids grow, their movements become more agile. Follow your child’s gross motor skill development from age 6 to 7. Gross motor skill development allows children to exercise their balance, coordination, and large muscles. These abilities will help your little one master certain movements, such as running, climbing, crawling, jumping, and throwing. Developing gross motor skills is also an important step toward developing fine motor skills.

Gross motor skills: 6–7 years old

At this age:

Your child can jump forward about 60 cm with both feet.

They can jump on one foot 10 times while staying in one spot or moving forward. Remember that not all children develop the same skills at the same speed. The material on this website is for general information purposes only. If you’re concerned about your child’s development, speak with a doctor.

They can kick a ball while moving and changing directions.

They can ride a bicycle without training wheels over a short distance.

They can coordinate their upper and lower body while jumping (e.g., they can do jumping jacks).

They’re gradually building muscle strength.

They demonstrate improved balance and endurance during physical activities.

Little by little, your child is beginning to do the following:

Acquire the skills needed to play team sports such as soccer or hockey.

Move more quickly and easily without bumping into obstacles or other people.

Successfully walk along a balance beam (5 cm wide) without falling.

How can you help your child progress?

Your child is unique and will develop at their own pace. They have strengths and weaknesses and are becoming increasingly self-aware. You can help your child develop their gross motor skills with these simple everyday actions: When your child goes outside and engages in physical activity during their free time, they improve their physical endurance while releasing any stress that’s built up during the day. When you go for bike rides together, your child improves their balance and muscle strength while discovering the world around them. When you give your child a physical challenge, such as racing you to the other end of the park, they build strength and endurance, and the bond between you grows stronger. When you let your child play a team sport with other kids, whether in an organized league or just for fun, their physical skills improve, and they learn how to be a team player. When you do winter sports together (e.g., sledding, skating, snowshoeing, skiing), your child develops an interest in a variety of physical activities in every season. When you create an obstacle course at home or put on music and have a dance party with your child, they improve their balance and coordination while seeing that it’s possible to be active even when you’re at home. When you challenge your little one to move in different ways, such as by skipping, moving sideways, or hopping from one foot to the other, they develop their balance and coordination.

What is a butterfly split?

Butterfly transactions are used when shareholders in a business are going their separate ways. It's a tax-free way of dividing assets between parties or between two companies in the same corporation. These transactions are essentially rollovers completed under section 85 of the Income Tax Act.

taxpage.com - Butterfly Transaction Canada | Taxpage

A butterfly transaction is a tax free method of dividing up assets in a corporation between shareholders who are going their separate ways. It can also be carried out by a single shareholder who has two different businesses in a corporation with a view to separating the divisions so that they are each in a separate corporation. It is called a butterfly reorganization because when drawn out the transaction has the look of a butterfly. Two winged butterflies and single winged butterflies refer to the detailed way in which the transaction is carried out. In essence the butterfly transactions consist of a series of tax free rollovers under section 85 of the Income Tax Act and cross redemptions of shares. A butterfly reorganization cannot be undertaken in contemplation of an arm’s length sale. So in the case of a business with different divisions, if there is ever to be a sale of one of the divisions the butterfly division has to be done before any sale is being considered, otherwise it will not qualify.
