What better way to keep your hands and fingers busy with these brilliant concept of making your own levitation ball. Whether for yourself or for children, it will keep you busy, not just making it but playing with it after.
It did not take long to put together at all, it was around 5 minutes and there is nothing quite like putting something together knowing you have made it.
Once we made it, the pair of us adults had huge amounts of fun to see who could blow the ball higher and for the longest. We were in fits of giggles and really enjoyed it.
It is very lightweight making it very easy to hold and would work just as well for any child making it very good even for little hands.
I love a toy that encourages sensory discover and the levitation ball does this in so many ways. From touch and feel to planning, building and construction. It is also extremely great from a teaching perspective when it comes to the science behind gravity. After reading more about this product, it says the following which was taken from the Kikkerland web page description:-
Demonstrate the Bernoulli principal by keeping that ball afloat. I had never heard of the Bernoulli principle, so, like most of us, I set to sail with Google and was amazed to read and learn what I did. If you would like to find out more, just click on the following link as it makes for interesting

COLOURS
GOOD TO KNOW
Personally, I feel this is designed to be used by one person due to the hygiene perspective of the mouth part that you blow into. Of course, if you are happy to share with your partner, it is of course a personal choice. For me, I would not want to share it with anyone else other than my husband.
