Clients can crawl through the barrels to enhance spatial awareness; add movement and they also provide strong vestibular input. If a therapist or client is inside a barrel, it provides heavy work for another client to push the barrel. The sturdy foam enables a therapist to work with a client on top of the barrel for balance and positioning activities.
The Kid-Lite Barrel is lined with vinyl and foam and covered on the outside with soft carpet. Padded edges around the rim help prevent pinched fingers.
