New NCHPAD publications include Thera-Band® and exercise ball exercise program factsheets for kids which can easily be adapted for children with developmental disabilities, those who use wheelchairs, or those with other disabilities.

Thera-Band® Program for Kids Factsheet: The Thera-Band® Band Exercise Program for Kids is designed specifically for physical education programs. By using simple elastic bands, a cost-effective program can be performed by any child in any setting. All major muscle groups can be exercised with one piece of equipment!

Exercise Ball Program for Kids Factsheet: The Thera-Band® Exercise Ball Program for Kids is also designed specifically for physical education programs. Using an exercise ball helps increase muscle activity and improves strength and balance. By adding Thera-Band® Soft Weight exercise balls and Resistive Bands, kids can obtain a complete workout.
