Javelin Noodles

Pool Noodles are great for a variety of therapy tasks.  You can jump rope with them or use them as an exercise bar. A variation you can try, is to have kids stand on a balance beam as they throw the javelin noodle towards a target. We celebrated the olympics so the javelin throw and curling(using noodles to push ice cubes along the course) were great additions to our therapy course. For additional strengthening, just add wrist weights.
We have included some additional pictures to show you other therapeutic activities with pool noodles.
