Why Should Your Child Play with Ball Toys?
|

---|---|---|---|
Physical + Motor SkillsGripping the spherical ball shape requires balance to grip and hold, a lesson for your child in physical control and muscle memory. The physical control of rolling, throwing or transferring a ball from one hand to the other is repeated frequently throughout playtime with ball toys as well. |
STEM LearningThe physics concepts of movement, force, gravity, and cause and effect are present in ball play toys. Through repetition and observation, kids will start to learn which movements make the ball roll, bounce, or fly through the air and land – and which movements make the ball stop altogether. |
Visual Skills + MemoryVisual-spatial skills are heavily involved with ball play. If your child rolls the ball too hard, it may hit something or fall off of a table. If the ball is thrown too softly, it will fall short of the intended basket. They’ll learn how to contain the ball within their play space through trial and error, improved hand-eye coordination and physical dexterity. |
Language + Social SkillsPassing a ball (whether by handling, rolling or throwing) teaches cooperation. This type of play teaches kids how to take their turn and rely on the other person to keep the game going, and sometimes to communicate and ask for the ball back. |
Play Together!
- Color Coordination: Work together with your child to send the balls plinking down the indoor maze or rooftop tubes. Help each other try to get as many of one color down the maze or tube as possible!
- Who can catapult a play ball higher? Take turns using the side flipper to shoot play balls into the air!
- Ball play is a great way to work on eye contact. Have your child pass the ball to you, then wait for them to make eye contact with you before passing it back.
