W-sitting is a position where children sit on the floor with their knees bent and legs turned out in a “W” shape. While it may feel comfortable and stable, frequent W-sitting can place extra stress on the hips, knees, and core, and may limit balance and postural development. Encouraging alternative sitting positions—such as criss-cross, side sitting, or long sitting—supports healthy movement, strength, and coordination as children grow.
