Choosing a large bouncing exercise ball is definitely a great way to work your abs and improve your balance. But exercise balls, especially bright, cute, and fluffy ones, work just as well for kids, and in some cases even better than adults.
Discover how more and more regular activity can lead to better stillness, enhanced health and better focus while using a yoga ball.
Regular use of an exercise ball can increase overall muscle tone. Because kids are so focused on having a good time with it, they barely realize the effect the exercise ball has on developing muscles. However, the benefits a child can gain through additional low-impact exercise, such as healthy posture, cardiovascular fitness, balance, core stability, and agility, all occur naturally while playing with kids yoga ball exercises.
Just as you maintain your balance, the core muscles are constantly at work—strengthening those deep abdominal and back muscles that support the spine and drive the arms, legs, and torso—all of which are important for day-to-day function.
It is very important to find the right size exercise ball for your child to get the best results.
Start by having your child sit comfortably and safely on the yoga ball—make sure her feet are flat on the floor and her knees should be at a 90-degree angle.
Kids exercise balls range in size from 45cm to 65cm. Children have smaller ball circumference measurements, so aim for 45cm for ages 5-8.
We recommend using the fluffy version of the Children's exercise ball to eliminate the possibility of slipping problems. Plus, the bright colors and fun characters on these perfect sensory balls help keep kids' attention. To learn more, visit Tridee exercise ball today.
