Activity #7: Bounce it or toss it?
Description: We started this activity to motivate my child to play catch. This was a skill that needed practice. We added choices to make it more fun. There are endless choices you could pick:, bounce, throw, spin it, overhand, underhand, left hand, right hand, roll, through the legs, etc.
Age: 3 and up
Purpose:
Catching and throwing,
Extending verbs,
Extending vocabulary
Prep time: minimal
What you’ll need: a large bouncy ball (or a smaller one for older children)
Fun Factor: We can play this activity for a long period of time, as long as you can continue to come up with new and funny ways to pass a ball. The variety is what makes this activity motivating. However, you can still repeat the choices.
