ADHD Brain Tips # 5: Sitting on Balls

Physio-balls are great too. Kids (and adults) love to sit on them.
Love to bounce on them. Love to roll away on them. They're nice for
a change in the classroom from the squishy cushions. And they really help with ADHD.

Since rolling away on balls can be disruptive, you can get rings to
put the balls on so they stay put, but now we're talking a bunch of
money. You can even get stands for the balls so they morph into desk
chairs. Even more money. And the balls take up a lot of room.

However, they're so great for kids (and adults too) and so much fun
that I suggest at least 2-3 in your classroom just for special
times. And certainly at least one at home!

Caution: Don't buy the cheap balls. If they pop, they'll collapse
immediately and you or your kid will crash to floor. It hurts!
Watch for a label on the box that says "deflates gradually" or
something like that.

Your next tip's a twofer: "Fingertips Three and Four"
