O Ball Original

 

Description

The O Ball Original is a 4.5 inch ball full of finger holes that make it incredibly easy to catch, captivating to hold, and safe to throw. The Original O Ball is shiny, smooth, flexible, durable, virtually indestructible, and dishwasher safe.

 

Why we love it

Oballs are the easiest and softest balls for your little one to play with! They make holding, catching & throwing super simple for your child, with oballs finger holes! Next thing you know your little one will be the next big league pitcher! They are so light they simply can′t cause damage no matter how hard it′s thrown...making it one of parent′s favorite toys too!

 

Features and Skills

  • It is not easy to find the perfect ball for a baby to play with. The big ones are too big for little hands to hold on to and the little ones end up in their mouths. That’s what makes the structure of the O Ball ideal. It’s big and colorful, but the holes in it make it easy for little fingers to grasp.  And O ball is very soft for those missed catches
  • At this age it is much harder to catch a ball from the air than to throw it. You can play a starter game of “catch” with your little one by having him/her throw you the ball from a short distance, and then you can roll it back for another throw.
  • Throwing underhand uses a different set of muscles than overhand. You can encourage your child to throw it both ways. You may find that your child is more comfortable throwing one way or the other.
  • O balls are great for kicking, too. They are hard enough to move quickly, but soft enough not to cause much damage.
  • As your child grows stronger and more coordinated, try challenging his/her accuracy by setting up targets, such as goals to kick through and baskets to shoot into. This developmental toy will help to improve his/her hand-eye coordination.

Product Reviews

 

Most sites have product reviews. At ebeanstalk we do it differently. All our reviews happen BEFORE a product makes it on our site. Our team of child-experts looked at, tested and selected only the best toys. Then, they matched the toys to a child’s stage of development. Then they custom write an instruction card for each and every toy. This is the ebeanstalk review process. No other site does this; not even close. By conducting the review ahead of time, we ensure that our toys are the best and you can trust that the toys you are buying are matched to a child’s stage of development.

 

HOWEVER, we still want your feedback. If you'd like to tell us your impressions of a toy, please email us at feedback@ebeanstalk.com
