A. Many children with low muscle tone have delays in their gross motor development (e.g. rolling, sitting, walking). Low muscle tone may be caused by problems with the nerves or muscles. Often the low muscle tone is idiopathic, which means the cause is unknown.But sometimes, there's no cure for the problem that causes hypotonia. If an inherited condition caused it, your child will have that condition for life. No matter the cause of hypotonia, your child can have therapy to strengthen their muscles and improve coordination.Exercise. Physical activities make for quality one-on-one time. ...Bounce. ...Let him loose. ...Peek-a-boo. ...Encourage with toys. ...Play with others. ...Cheer him on.Child has increased flexibility/relaxed joints. Delay in gross motor milestones such as rolling, sitting, crawling, walking. Tires easily/decreased endurance during play. ... Gross motor activities: Bounce on a therapy ball. ...Animal walks. ...Tug of war. ...Laundry. ...Play with a ball. ...Scrunching, ripping, balling up paper.
