Here Comes the Ball III

Parent and child practice throwing and catching a ball back and forth, with a focus on overhand throwing technique and catching a bounced ball. The agent coaches the parent to observe throwing mechanics, catching coordination, and backward jumping movements — building fundamental ball skills and gross motor coordination.

Free to do together whenever you like.

What you'll need

Open space indoors or outdoors. Parent and child standing facing each other about 6-8 feet apart. Soft, lightweight ball that child can grip easily. Enough room for child to move backward safely.

How it works

The 3-step guide, with what to look for at each step, is for signed-in parents.
