Our brains thrive on sensory information. As a matter of fact, cognitive development is propelled forward by the sensory information that our brains process on a continual basis.
One of the most important senses we have is proprioception - the ability to sense position, location, orientation, and movement of the body and its parts. As a significant portion of sensory input, we should exercise and develop it every day. The benefits are great and the activities are fun! You may not even feel like you are working at all...
With increased amounts of proprioception, the brain receives a sensory workout which exercises the nerve cells. This "nerve exercise" results in improved balance, coordination, and brain function.
