Ball pits are fun for children of all ages and walks of life, but they can also provide special needs children with additional benefits that merge playtime with therapy. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities often require sensory experiences that allow them to focus on particular modes of input. Fabrication Enterprises' Large Sensory Ball Pit Balls are designed to be used with either the
Freestanding Sensory Ball Pool Tower or the
Panel-Sided Ball Pit; though they can, of course, easily find a home in other ball pit environments. Regardless of the type of pit used, these balls possess very simple yet important characteristics that will delight children and enable them to explore the bounds of their senses. Each ball is three inches in diameter and is smooth and cool to the touch, providing children with tactile feedback as they roll the balls in their hands, toss them back and forth, and swim through them in a ball pit. In addition to tactile and proprioceptive input, children with special needs will find another form of sensory experience in the brightly colored balls, and children of all ages will find the color variety engaging and appealing.
Each order contains 500 balls and can be purchased in a mixed batch of multiple colors in individual batches of red, yellow, blue, green, purple, or orange.
