Summary

This study tests whether playing a bean bag tossing game on a wedge or a balance board can improve balance and walking in children with Down syndrome. Thirty-six children aged 7-12 will be split into two groups and play the game for 30 minutes, three times a week, for four weeks. Researchers will measure changes in balance and gait using standard tests.
