Punch-ball (hanging)
Submitted by Bonnie Gasparini of New Jersey Veterans Home on

Size: 4-6
Equipment: one punch ball, yarn or ribbon, string
Objective: hand
and eye coordination...plus anyone who passes my hanging
punch ball cannot resist taking a poke at it...including
staff
Description: blow up one punch ball (it usually comes in
packages of 2 or more) Take ribbon, string or yarn and tie
it at one end of the punch ball. The other end hang from
your ceiling. Place residents around the hanging punch ball
and watch the fun! I have them placed in several areas sometimes
in my dayroom. Anyone who passes cannot resist taking a swing
at it. This works really well with residents in wheelchairs.
