INGREDIENTS:
Balls of various sizes (e.g., exercise ball, Wiffle balls, ping pong balls)
Optional: containers, buckets, plastic bottles
INSTRUCTIONS:
Here are some great tips for developing motor skills through play:
Pair balls with containers. Observe as children experiment and discover the endless possibilities.
Play catch! Roll and toss the ball back and forth. Chase the ball when it rolls away!
Roll, lay, and sit your whole body on a big ball!
Set up “pins” using plastic bottles and go bowling! Kick, toss, and roll the ball down the lane.
