[quote=Anonymous]I've used a balance board for my own physical therapy post surgery and they aren't that much fun to use. Useful, good for my balance, core, blah blah but not fun. I'd get a mini trampoline with bar and then work to get him on it. You go to the room with him and chat or play games while he's on it. Can you bounce 3 times then do X with me (5 high fives) then bounce 4 more times and... You might have to incorporate it into a routine. .. go bounce while I prep dinner then we'll read a book while dinner is in the oven. Set a timer for 5 mins and he bounced until it goes off. Can you count how many bounces until the timer goes off (set to 3 mins ). And so on. But a balance board while good for him won't be fun. You gotta have the fun factor or it won't happen. [/quote]
