Balloons and rackets for toddlers

An occupational therapist had suggested this activity for toddlers or children who have difficulty with games involving a racket and a ball.

Instead of using a ball, use a balloon. Since it is light, it falls to the ground slower and gives children a chance to hit it...even I had fun with this game!

I also hung the balloon from a tree using elastic. Children can't miss!
