Play Tip!
Children with Cerebral Palsy often have problems with abduction orscissoring" of the legs. Most positioners are boring and confining. Not the Bolster Pony though! Try setting up an indoor obstacle course with soft pillows to ride the pony through. It adds fun to the physical therapy workout!

PLAY Tip
Practice Visual Tracking With A Bubble Blower!
Try using the bubble blower in a windless environment to provide slow moving bubbles when the child is just beginning to visually track. Later, to make a greater challenge, take it outside on a windy day or run a fan in the room with the blower. Visual tracking is an important precursor skill for reading!
