A simple straight-forward good product, 8 Jun. 2013

This has been a hit with the autistic young adult it was bought for and is enjoyed by playful non-autistic adults too as well as children and babies. The texture is appealing and the glow, whilst not exactly dazzling, is normal. In a dark room at night, after exposure to daylight earlier on, the ball glows softly but very noticeably even from across the room. The ball glows more brightly under a UV bulb (blacklight) as most glow-in-the-dark toys do!

The quality seems good. The ball comes inflated but we have deflated and reinflated ours with our own football pump in order to pack the ball to travel with it. It's been kicked around parks and has stood up to being submerged in chlorinated water at the swimming pool. It still glows! So far so good with durability. We have reinflated our ball slightly over the level it was supplied at, to add extra bounce. But this isn't necessary, or even recommended, it's just our choice.

Spikey balls, such as this, are useful for...

Good but not as big as I would have liked., 22 Jan. 2011

My son likes this ball, but it is a bit on the small side. We had a previous ball from the US that was great that was just a few inches bigger and it was much better. Not a very good glow on it either.

sensory ball, 22 Mar. 2013

I bought this sensory ball as a present for an autistic child. His mum told me, that it was the perfect present .he loves it. He sleeps with it, as the texture comforts him. Also if you put the ball near to a light bulb, and then swith off the light it "recharges", and glows a lot in the dark.
