The program will run three days a week on non-consecutive days, focusing on various exercises for children. Activities include: 1) knee manipulation for balance; 2) guided body weight shifting; 3) balancing on a board; 4) training for equilibrium and protective reactions; 5) gait training in a closed environment with obstacles; 6) open environment gait training; 7) strengthening exercises for the back, hips, and knees; and 8) passive stretching for tight muscles in both lower and upper limbs.

1\. Activities involve standing and reaching for objects at various distances and heights. 2. Sit-to-stand tasks are performed from different chair heights and while carrying objects. 3. Stepping activities occur in various directions and on different block heights and surfaces. 4. Alternating heel and toe raises focus on increasing repetitions. 5. Stairs are ascended and descended with added weight and object carrying. 6. Backward walking starts near a wall, progressing to shuttle runs. 7. Walking on a balance beam involves increased speed and varied surfaces.

The study will utilize Everyway Medical Instruments for electrical stimulation, with one electrode on the tibialis anterior muscle and the other on the common peroneal nerve. A tilt sensor will trigger stimulation during the swing phase of the tibia. The stimulation parameters include a pulse frequency of 25-40 hertz, a pulse duration of 250 to 300 milliseconds, and an on-off time ratio of 1:2 for 20 minutes, aimed at inducing ankle dorsiflexion while preventing inversion.
