Description
Overview
The Smiley Face Playball is a mid-sized PVC playball, 18 cm across, with a smiley face design that gives tamariki something to look at while they track the ball. We list it under soft & low bounce because it is built for controlled play rather than high bouncing.
It is a middle step between the smallest pvc playballs and the full-size ones, useful for children moving on to two-handed catching.
Key benefits
- Friendly face design holds young children's attention.
- Low bounce keeps the ball within reach after a miss.
- At 18 cm it fills two small hands for early catching.
- Light at 0.2 kg for rolling and gentle throwing.
Who it's for
Early childhood centres, new entrant classes and playgroups. Older students wanting a lively kickabout ball should look at the larger playground balls.
Frequently asked questions
Will it bounce like a normal playground ball?
No. It is a soft, low bounce ball, so expect a gentler bounce that suits catching and rolling games.
