We bought a huge red bag and filled it with the plastic balls. They have

this bag in the OT room at my son's school. We used to have inflatable pools,

but my son kept biting the sides and making them pop... I think we bought it

from South Paw Enterprises and it might be called Ball Pit Bag????

Thanks Bianca -great suggestion!!

We can share info we learned here to help others -and we can learn

info from the public too! I just took yours and Sandi's

suggestion on how to build a ball pit without any (last) names or

personal info and added them here

http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=7341 & post=26193 & uid=115029735601#/topic.\

php?uid=115029735601 & topic=7341

(Sandi you didn't put your name at all so I didn't add your name)

If either or both of you want to add to what is there -please do!

(or if anyone else wants to add please do too!)

Lori Rosen uploaded the photo of the inexpensive ball pit you can

purchase to the photo section to this group

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=115029735601

This Facebook group will be a great way to keep information that can

be made public easy to find for others...and for us. And again by

sharing I'm sure we'll get many more suggestions and that's a very

good thing!

I just wanted to ask if you are talking about the ball bag (meant for

storing balls) on page 63 of Southpaw's current book. Item # 1379?

I do not think those bags are intended to play in, are they?

It might be dangerous.

I just went online and saw that the ball bag they currently have is a small

white one for $19.99. This is not the one I'm talking about. This one is for

storing bags and I would not recommend letting a child go in there. The one t

hat we have is a huge red one that is made of a stretchy material that has

little holes in it. It is designed for kids to go in there and roll around.

They

use it in the sensory room at my son's school and he loves it. He put all

his toys in there with him and plays in there a lot each day.

You can make one with a blowup swimming pool. You can get different shapes

and sizes. I was lucky to bet the pool at target for 2.49 end of summer

sale. I also found some balls at our local Goodwill store. You can also go to

craigs list and type in your town and look for items and also freecycle list

under your town and look for items.

loves ball pits, but... here is my problem. He bites the balls.

He did have one babypool that we used after summer for his ball pit.

And all was going well until he discovered that if he tried REALLY hard,

he could actually puncture the balls with his little sharp teeth. So...

no more balls here until I can find some that he cannot bite and cannot

stuff into his mouth. Any ideas for balls?

Thanks!

Any one have suggestions for ball pits that can withstand cat's claws?  We had a

really nice three feet deep one all last summer and apparantly a cat tried to

jump in it and his back claw punctured it.  Now our balls are sitting in a bag

in the attic.  I would like to pull it back out but hate to invest in a $30 blow

up pool that is going to get punctured.

The Duck Pond is $193., and it comes with blue and green balls and

ducks. We were thinking about getting this and then buying dollar

store noodles and cutting them into 3 " x 2 " pieces and then adding

them to the pit mixture.
