Haven't been on the board in a whole but being that Human anatomy is my forte... I'm going to chime in : Primary ossification (hardening of bones) hasn't even finished in a normal 3 year old. I totally get that you want your child to tumble, but please use caution. Excessive wear on bones at this stage of development can stop bone growth, throw off alignment of the vertebrae and cause other issues. Am I telling you to stop? No. Just make sure she is not in danger of causing LIFE long damage to her body. Please use good judgment.
