April sometime.

Hi Peggy,

here in Germany they are called " Pezzi Balls " and since they are very

popular you can get them for cheap in supermarkets or from your

health insurance. Pharmacies and Health Care Shops sell them too, if

you want to spend some extra money :-))

I think in the US they are mostly called " Physio Balls " .

Fiona has one since forever, it was part of her daily routine to do

some gymnastics (stretching, postural drainage, hopping) on the ball

until she got more active and began to hop all through the house.

Next week she will get a mini-trampoline, because she wears out our

furniture too much.

Peace

Torsten, dad of Fiona 4wcf

Are these the ones with the handles? I think they were called Kangaballs or

something like the. Jocus Toys used to sell them. I think they are on-line.

I'll check. There is also the Theraballs which are used in physio and don't

have handles. You can usually get those at medical supply or fitness supply

stores.

Another good thing for bouncing up mucus in the winter is those mini-tramps.

Wal-mart has these!

I found this site

http://gymball.com/gymnastk.html

where the 75 cm ball is offered for 23.95 $

At least if daddy has to sit on the ball and keep the child on his

lap, you need this size.

I know what you mean. Ours came down in October but owing to our climate, won't

be back 'til May . I really miss it and I don't even go on it. We have very

strict rules about use and an 8ft high guard net around it to stop little bodies

from flying off!
