Jumpoff Jo RockSteady Balance Stepping Stones for kids are a great way to help you toddler build confidence, balance, and coordination. As they play, they’ll learn spatial awareness, figuring out how to navigate height and distance between blocks. They’ll build and improve their gross motor skills. Plus, Bonus – – they help burn up all that extra energy inside because let’s face it, we’re heading into another long winter where we’ll be spending a lot of time at home. With Christmas coming these would make a perfect gift that will last for years and be used by the whole family.
JumpOff Jo Balance Blocks Set
We have the new JumpOff Jo Rocksteady Plus Balance Blocks and Puddle Jumper Stones for Kids set. It includes the original RockSteady Balance Stepping Stones (6 firm balance blocks in 3 different sizes and heights), plus 6 textured, flexible foam stepping stones.
Open-ended Play: How we use them
We love open ended toys that encourage imaginative play and these have been the perfect addition! They can of course be used for stepping on. You can create so many different arrangements. We build obstacle courses and play follow the leader. We love to pretend the floor is lava or that we’re hopping on stones to cross a jungle river. They make great props for other play too! We add them to our villages as mountains and rocks to drive toy cars through.
They can be used inside or outside on pretty much any surface. The non-slip bottoms make them safe and keep them from sliding around. They can hold up to to 220 pounds so even mom and dad get in on the fun. Arabella is 3 and wants to play with them all day. I’m pretty sure she’ll be playing with them for years to come!
Storage
We don’t have a dedicated play room so I love how easy they are to store. The balance rocks all stack inside each other so they can easily be tucked in a corner or on a shelf when not in use.
Promote Balance and Coordination
Gross motor skills are so important for kids to build the muscles, balance, and coordination they need to walk, run, and jump. It’s so important for us as parents to find safe ways for our kids to build and develop these skills. How do you keep your kids moving and climbing things other then the furniture when you’re stuck inside?
