The Senses
The Activity Ball provides a wonderful, enjoyable way for baby to perfect the coordination between her senses.

There are various appealing objects to gaze at to stimulate her sense of sight, and when baby strikes it, the Activity Ball will make five different sounds, and the other parts make a pleasant rustling sound for auditory stimulation.

The activities are all made from different materials, offering a varied tactile experience to stimulate baby's sense of touch. As baby looks at, touches and plays with the Activity Ball, she is busy developing her senses and the coordination between them.

Gross Motor Skills
The Activity Ball helps baby progress in the initial phases of the crawling phase.

When she pushes the ball, it doesn’t roll away and escape, but rocks and moves slowly, encouraging her to pull herself forward to reach it. Baby enjoys feeling the Activity Ball's soft texture and grabbing onto long horns, which support her and help her bring herself to a sitting position.

Fine Motor Skills
The large variety of activities offers a plethora of play possibilities that help develop baby's fine motor skills.

These include using the fingers, the muscles of the fingers, coordination between the hands and hand-eye coordination. For example, pulling the feet requires baby to hold the ball in one hand and pull the feet with the other: an excellent exercise requiring coordination of both hands.

Cognitive Skills
The Activity Ball provides numerous opportunities to stimulate baby's curiosity, and her urge to discover and learn new things.

The activities on the Ball demand that she figure out ways to reach them. Her developing memory enables her to remember where the activities are located. The gradual integration of the concept of cause and effect help her to understand that in order to reach an activity that she sees, she must push or roll the ball to get to it, or pull the head out to bring up the smiling face, etc.

Object Permanence
The Activity Ball has several activities that illustrate the concept of object permanence. When baby sees the horns and eyes, and then pulls to reveal the complete smiling face, in this enjoyable peek-a-boo game, she sees that she can make the face appear and disappear again and again.
