Description
Overview
The Set of 6 Numbered Playground Balls combines a soft, low-pressure rubber playball with number learning. Each 22 cm ball carries raised digits plus printed graphics showing the number as dots, as a digit and as a word in four languages, so a throw-and-catch game can also be a counting or language activity.
They sit in the low and general purpose end of our playground balls range: forgiving to catch, easy to grip and not built for hard bounce or striking games.
Key benefits
- Turns catching practice into counting practice with raised digits and number graphics.
- Soft textured rubber surface is easy for small hands to grip.
- Low pressure keeps the ball gentle to catch and slow to bounce.
- 22 cm size suits two-handed catching for young children.
- Six colourful balls let a group work in pairs or small stations.
Who it's for
Made for early childhood centres, new entrant classrooms and junior primary PE where you want one piece of gear for both movement and numeracy. Teachers running bilingual or language programmes get extra value from the number words printed in four languages.
They are not a replacement for a sport-specific ball; for older students choose a proper netball, football or basketball from the Avaro range.
Sizing guide
All six balls are 22 cm in diameter, a size young children can catch with two hands.
Care, safety and set-up
These are low-pressure balls and do not need to be pumped hard; a light top-up keeps them soft. Store out of direct sun and wipe down after use on asphalt or grass.
