Balance side to side, and keep the ball on the track while you do it
A 50 x 23 x 9cm seesaw board with a ball run built into the top. Comes with a 2.2cm PE ball and a 3.07cm TPR ball. Maximum load 60kg.
A plain balance board asks one thing: stay upright. This one asks two - stay upright and steer a ball along a track using nothing but the tilt of the board. That second task is what holds a child's attention past the first minute, and it is why a board with a run gets used all term where a plain one does not.
It also changes what the child is learning. Balancing is a whole-body task; steering a ball on a moving board is a whole-body task with a precise goal attached, which is a genuinely harder piece of motor planning.
Two balls, two speeds. The small hard PE ball runs fast and is the difficult one; the larger TPR ball is slower and more forgiving. Start a child on the big one.
Safety: ages 3 and over, maximum loading 60kg.
Where it sits on weight. Load limits across our balance range run from 60kg to 200kg and they are not interchangeable - the crocodile stones and the two Weplay seesaws stop at 60kg, the river stones at 80kg, the Gonge Build N' Balance system at 100kg, and the wooden rocking board at 200kg. Check the figure against the students who will actually stand on it, especially in upper primary.
