THERAPY BALL PLAY AND EXERCISE – Montessori Activities

I began to use the therapy ball to do exercises with kids since they were little babies! 👶🏼You can see these exercises in my highlights “0+” and “baby exercises”. But we still use the therapy ball for stretching and gross motor play! 👍Here is one of the ways that can turn work on the therapy ball
into fun play! 😃Have the kids lay on their stomach and you stand by their feet. You roll the ball forward until their hands touch the floor👐. Keep rolling forward and have them walk their hands forward to pick up a ball🎾 or other toy🧸 that you place out there for them. Then you can roll them back so that they are laying on top of the ball again. Like we did with Arman, you can ask kids to drop the toy into a basket 🧺for even better stretching! This is a great activity for upper body strengthening, upper body range of motion and shoulder stability! ❤️
