WOW! The thrilling activity of rotating, rocking and cooperating with a friend is hugely appealing to children of all ages. The WeHopper is perfect in size for young children, and their enthusiasm in mastering the activity is pure play. When pushing with the feet and pulling with the arms, the WeHopper is set into motion. This trains coordination skills as well as muscles. The handholds allow for different grip heights so that a span of ages are able to get a firm grip. When rotating, the children stimulate their sense of balance, which is fundamental for all other motor skills and involves the ability to for instance sit still on a chair. The coordination of movements for the individual child, and not least the coordination of movements together with a friend, takes concentration and body mastery. This stimulates social skills, and it builds confidence in movement, supporting self-efficacy.

Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
