How do I clean the Rainbow Soft Ball?

You can clean the ball by wiping it with a damp cloth. If necessary, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe again with a clean damp cloth and let it air dry completely. Do not submerge in water.

While designed for general sensory and motor development, its ability to encourage rolling, catching, and grasping makes it a useful tool for supporting gross motor skill development in early childhood.

Troubleshooting

Ball is not making noise.

Ensure the ball is not punctured. If the seal is intact, gently shake or roll the ball to activate the beads.

Beads are not moving freely.

Check if the ball has been squeezed or deformed. Allow it to return to its natural shape. Avoid storing it under heavy objects.

Wipe the ball with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
