Why? What are the benefits?
If the child is using Giraffe with their
knees bent and their feet on the
footplate, set seat length to about 2
cm shorter than the thigh length of the
child to prevent pressure behind the
knee.
If the child has one leg shorter than
the other set the seat length for the
shorter leg. Check hips are square
when one leg seems shorter than the
other as incorrect hip position may be
the problem.
Very young children can sit with their
legs stretched out if you set the seat
to its longest position. This prevents
tightening of the muscles behind knees
and provides a stable hip position.
