Labyrinth Balance Board Review

Labyrinth Balance Board Review

I first became aware of the Labyrinth Balance Board from Challenge & Fun from the blog "Things Mom Likes" where one was being reviewed and given away. I immediately thought of my 10-year old daughter Samantha. My first thought was that she loved the little hand-held games where you put the little marble in the hole by moving it around. Samantha has a disease called Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (herein after referred to as NF1, as 1 of my other 4 children also has this disease and I’ll probably refer to it often) Part of the complications that can go with this disease are gross and fine motor skill disabilities/delays, Learning Disabilities and ADHD. So, I entered the contest but put Grandma on the case as a possible Christmas Gift for Samantha in case I did not win. I did not win but Grandma came thru big time.


I was thrilled when she opened it on Christmas Day and saw the excitement on her face. We immediately took it out and put it to the test. This toy works on all of her issues AND holds her attention-anything that does that is 5 stars in my book. It works on her leg muscles and works on coordination. Her brother Ben loves it too. Our youngest daughter Gracie, also with NF1, loves to try it too. We got the regular size Balance Board, but they do make a Jr. Size for the smaller tikes.

Overall thoughts are 1) Perfect for ALL Children, 2) Excellent for Children with Gross/Fine Motor Skills and Attention issues. 3) Gets the kids active-perfect for winter! Here’s some pics of my kiddos playing on it.
