We use sensory balls regularly with our special needs students.  These balls are usually 2 1/2" to 5" diameter balls of various colors, textures, and densities.  Their design and use helps us to stimulate the nerves in the palms of the hands and help  strengthen the tendons and muscles in the hands and arms.  As a result of the work we do with sensory balls and other work during the therapeutic riding sessions, we are able to help our students overcome many of their sensory issues and improve upper body coordination.

We utilize the large traffic cones in conjunction with pvc pipe striped in the primary colors and the color purple in the arenas to mark obstacles.  Using these fun markers helps the students improve their hand to eye coordination and spatial perception.  The exercises they do while utilizing these poles also help strengthen and improve their upper body and lower body coordination. At the end of each session, the student is also exercising critical thinking while figuring out how to take colored rings off of the poles as part of clean-up at the end of the lesson.
