Sensory Catchtail Balls – Collection of 6 ⚾☄️
Take active playtime to spectacular new heights with our fantastic collection of Sensory Catchtail Balls!
Designed to make throwing and catching exceptionally rewarding, this brilliant set features six baseball-sized spheres, each attached to a massive, brightly coloured 1-metre nylon tail. As the ball flies through the air, the long tail trails behind it like a comet, providing an absolutely incredible visual target that is exceptionally easy for the eyes to track. Whether you challenge yourself to catch the ball itself or simply snatch the flowing tail out of the air, it is a phenomenal tool for building physical confidence, gross motor coordination, and visual processing skills!
Core Benefits:
-
✔ Brilliant Visual Tracking – The incredibly long 1-metre tail provides a massive, high-visibility line of colour, giving the eyes plenty of time to lock on and track its path across the sky.
-
✔ Exceptionally Easy to Catch – Gives beginners a massive advantage! If grabbing the 7 cm ball is too tricky, children can easily snatch any part of the long nylon tail to secure a highly rewarding catch.
-
✔ Encourages Dynamic Movement – Perfect for a huge variety of active play! They can be thrown high into the sky, swung in circles, or tossed underhand to build excellent gross motor coordination.
-
✔ Educational Colour Play – Featuring a rainbow of six distinctly coloured tails, they are a fantastic way to naturally incorporate colour recognition and calling games into physical play.
-
✔ Perfect for Crossing the Midline – Swinging the balls around the body by their long tails encourages large arm movements that cross the physical center of the body, a vital developmental skill.
