Skyball is a brand of hollow medium-sized bouncy ball filled with a mix of helium and compressed air, claimed by the manufacturer to have particularly good bounce characteristics. Nerf balls, introduced in 1970, are also small balls that bounce, but they have a lower coefficient of restitution than a typical bouncy ball. Balls similar in size and composition to Spaldeens, but featuring a plethora of designs (such as a baseball pattern, miniature basketball and soccer ball patterns, and so forth) are offered by many companies. Due to their low cost per unit, bouncy balls with logos or other designs are sometimes used as promotional merchandise. Bouncy balls may, by means of fluorescence, chemiluminescence, or motion-activated LEDs, emit light; such balls are called glow balls. Balls composed of many rubber bands, or bouncy balls made of borax, glue, and cornstarch, are sometimes homemade. [3] [4] Bouncy balls are often used in juggling.

Big, small, bouncy, squishy—balls are beneficial toys for kids. They can use them for open-ended playor directed games and sports, alone, with a buddy, or on a team. According to Heather Shafi, MD, FAAP, a pediatrician in New Jersey, playing with balls is good for hand-eye coordination, muscle development, and social skills. Moreover, kids will be working on fine motor skills, spatial awareness, problem-solving skills, and balance, too. For this move, consider using a ball that’s not the perfect fit. A larger ball makes this move more difficult, while a smaller ball is a little easier on your thighs.

She’s also the mom of a 12-year-old son, an 8-year-old son, and a 4-year-old daughter. Maya’s kids are all super, super active, and her house, yard, garage, and even minivan trunk have a huge variety of balls. Since her kids are older, she makes all ball playing take place outdoors to keep her windows and TV safe. She loves keeping a ball in the car trunk.

While playing with balls can be super fun, it’s important to be safe and choose the right ball for your kiddo and their needs. According to Dr. Shafi, choking is the biggest concern. She doesn’t recommend any ball that’s small enough for a child to fit in their mouth because they’re choking hazards. Moreover, “be careful with using hard balls with young children that may not be able to catch well, or likewise, may not be able to regulate their own strength or distance when playing ball,” she advises. Squat until knees form 90-degree angles, squeezing the ball to stay balanced. Hold the position as long as possible, working up to 30–45 seconds per set.
