PICTURES ADVENTURERS KINDERGARTEN - WIGHT Ms. Farrell’s students had a blast in the little gym where Ms. Wight directed various activities using three Ominkin balls. These huge nylon cloth balls contain large inflated meteorological balloons making them light-weight and durable. Three activities were photographed: 1. Bump in the road where children took turns rolling balls over their peers lying on the soft mats, 2. Squish the student where two bigger people tried to squish students as they ran between two balls, 3. Roll and bounce students on top of the Ominikin balls. All the activities brought out huge smiles on the faces of the children. 12-12-2022. Link to 42 Pictures.
