Sensory integration training parent-child games on inflatable gym mats

How we do the sensory integration training game on inflatable yoga mats?

1. Play catch with someone; (1-2)

Training purpose: Social skills/arm movement

Training requirements: the parent sits opposite the child, the parent passes the ball to the child, and encourages the child to pass the ball to the parent as well.

Difficulty setting: A At the beginning, parents can put the ball directly into children's hands; B The parent extends the ball to the child and encourages him/her to reach for it. C Parents should say "thank you" when children offer the ball to their parents.

Help giving: If the child does not have the initiative to catch and give the ball, ask another adult to give physical guidance until the child begins to have the awareness to catch and give the ball, and gradually withdraw the help given. For safety, we keep on the game on inflatable gym or yoga mats.

2. Can catch a rolling ball and push it back; (1-2)

Training purpose: Arm motor ability/hand-eye coordination

Training: Parents sit across from their children at opposite ends of the table. The parent pushes the ball to the child and encourages him to reach out and catch the ball and push it back to the parent.

Difficulty setting: A Should push and catch the ball at arm's length at the beginning, encouraging the child to catch the ball with both hands. Push the ball from right to left with your right hand. B Gradually increase the distance and encourage the child to push the ball out with both hands and catch it with one hand.

Help giving: start with the physical assistance of another adult, focus on developing independent skills in each difficulty, and gradually withdraw the degree of help.

Help giving: To begin, parents can stand on the upper stairs and extend their hands to help their child while giving the verbal command "Go!" ; If the child does not cooperate, you can put the dried fruit on the stairs, and give a reward after the child steps on it. Note that dried fruit can be placed on each step at the beginning, and gradually, only on a few or the last steps. No matter how the child cries, insist that the child cooperate in order to give the reward.
