Equipment Name: Yarn Ball
Materials Needed: Yarn, Cardboard, Scissors.
Estimated Cost: $2.00-5.00
Rationale: Allows child to practice manipulating a soft, non-threatening, catchable piece of equipment.
Directions For Making:
Cut two donuts out of the cardboard. The hole in
the middle should be at least as big as a fifty cent
coin. Place the two cardboard donuts together and begin
to wrap the yarn through the middle and around the
cardboard. Continue around the circle until the middle is
filled. Now take a pair of scissors and cut the yarn along
the edge of the cardboard. When finished you will have
the yarn loose sticking through the hole in the
cardboard. Now separate the cardboard just a little and tie
the middle of the yarn ball between the two cardboard
donuts. Once this is tied, you can pull off the cardboard
and trim up the yarn ball with the scissors.
