Colour Balls Tracker

1. Develop tracking skills - allows the child to focus on a moving object.
2. Strengthens eye muscles - as the child is able to focus and track the ball for longer periods of time they will strengthen their eye muscles.
3.Develops coordination - the child coordinates the movement of both eyes as they focus and track the ball in addition to developing hand-eye coordination as they reach for and grasp the ball.
4.Learn problem-solving skills - if ball falls out or if the ball doesn't go in the child begins to problem solve.
5.Develops gross and fine motor skills - the child will grasp the ball, squat, move up and down and reach out repeatedly.
6.Develops core stability - for young children the squatting and moving up and down picking up the ball and standing independently can help develop core stability.
7.Develops bilateral integration skills (use and coordinate both sides of the body at the same time) and provides opportunity to cross the midline - children may pick the ball up with one hand and pass it to the other hand or will cross the midline to put the ball back into the frame.
