Rotating Ball to develop motor planning
This ball rewards children who manipulate it by making a squeak. One boy enjoyed doing this repeatedly laughing while I counted 30 squeaks. This little girl is working on using her hands together and motor planning.
I am the author of The Recycling Occupational Therapist and From Rattles to Writing: A Parent's guide to Hand Skills (both sold at Therapro.com) I am also the author of Still Giving Kisses: A Guide to Helping and Enjoying the Alzheimer's Victim You Love. I wrote this book to share my many ideas for therapeutic adaptations and activities that help loved ones enjoy spending time with an Alzheimers victim.
