    This activity will help develop your child’s motor skills
    and build up confidence.
    Provide your child with a
    large soft ball or beach ball.
    Get them to throw the ball to you.
    Catch it and throw it back. Get them
    to catch the ball.
    Talk about throwing and catching. Start to
    introduce a movement vocabulary such as
    stretch, copy, high, low.
    As they get more confident move further
    away when you throw.


    Encourage them by giving lots of praise. Have fun and enjoy the activity with your child.
