Summary

The aim of this project is to implement and evaluate the effects of a mobility-focused training program, including the use of running frames, on gross motor function and physical activity levels in children aged 2-5 years with cerebral palsy. The hypothesis is that these children can improve their mobility with or without assistive devices, that the training program will influence their overall activity level, and that it will provide cardiovascular exercise leading to improved fitness and muscle development.

In previous studies, the investigators have observed positive health-related outcomes in older children. Recently, three-wheeled Frame Running bikes designed for very young children have become available; however, no research has been conducted on these devices or their potential effects in toddlers.

In this project, group training sessions will be offered to children aged 2-5 years. Participants will receive mobility and gait training with or without assistive devices, depending on individual needs. The three-wheeled Frame Running bike will be included as one training component, although participants may use other assistive aids as needed. Training is planned as play-based activities together with peers, for one hour per week over a 12-week period, complemented by home-based exercises.
