Flashing Bouncing Ball

$4.00 
SKU: TNW-BT206FNG

These Flashing Bouncing Balls are multi-sensory tools designed to provide a variety of therapeutic benefits:

  • Tactile and Proprioceptive Input: The swirly textured exterior provides tactile input, while the act of bouncing and catching the ball offers proprioceptive feedback related to body position and movement. The combination of textures and movement input can be calming and regulating for individuals with sensory processing sensitivities or those who benefit from fidgeting.
  • Visual Stimulation: The flashing lights triggered by impact provide dynamic visual stimulation, which can be engaging and captivating for many individuals. This can be particularly appealing to those who are visually oriented or who benefit from visual sensory input.
  • Gross Motor Skill Development: Bouncing and catching the balls promotes gross motor coordination, timing, and motor planning. The act of reaching, throwing, and catching strengthens large muscle groups.
  • Visual-Motor Integration: Tracking the ball's movement and coordinating hand and body movements to catch or throw it enhances visual-motor integration. The added challenge of the flashing lights can further refine these skills.
  • Fine Motor Skill Development (Potential): While the primary focus is on gross motor skills, the act of grasping and releasing the ball can also contribute to fine motor control and hand strength.
  • Social Interaction and Play: The balls can be used in cooperative games and activities, promoting social interaction, turn-taking, and communication. They can also be incorporated into imaginative play scenarios.
  • Sensory Integration: The combination of tactile, proprioceptive, and visual input makes these flashing bouncing balls a stimulating sensory experience, supporting sensory integration and processing.

The funky colors add another layer of visual stimulation, making these balls appealing to a wide range of individuals. Occupational Therapists can use them in therapy sessions to address a variety of goals, including improving gross motor skills, enhancing visual-motor integration, supporting sensory integration, and encouraging social interaction. The flashing lights add an element of novelty and can increase engagement in therapeutic activities.
