The Little Tennis Ball

Emme has a few tiny tennis balls that she plays with. The regular size ones are hard for her to handle but these little ones are perfect. They are about the size of a ping-pong ball but are made like tennis balls. She will spend a great deal of time pushing the ball around the floor and then hiding it under a cabinet or stool.

She plays with the ball almost like a kitten plays. She will bat the ball around the room and chase it. She pounces on it and shakes and chews it. Sometimes she will get it in her mouth and throw it up in the air and then run after it. Outside, she likes to run after the ball, but she still doesn't get the fetch game. She just runs to the ball and then stands still near it and looks around the back yard.

She is entertained by the ball and she is certainly entertainment for us.
