The Balance Stepping Stones Starfish set is a versatile gross motor and sensory movement resource designed to support balance, coordination, motor planning and active physical development in children. Suitable for NDIS participants, occupational therapy programs, physiotherapy sessions, schools, early learning environments and home care settings, this engaging stepping stone set helps build confidence through movement while encouraging active participation and play-based learning.

Featuring six starfish-shaped stepping stones in soft pastel colours, the Balance Stepping Stones Starfish set can be arranged in multiple ways to create balance paths, obstacle courses, sensory circuits and movement games. Children can step, hop and jump between stones while developing core physical skills, body awareness and confidence in movement. This makes the set a practical choice for supporting gross motor development, bilateral coordination, postural control and proprioceptive input in both structured therapy and everyday play.

The Balance Stepping Stones Starfish set can support a range of functional and developmental outcomes, including:

• Improving balance and coordination through stepping, hopping and controlled movement activities
• Developing gross motor skills such as jumping, navigating pathways and maintaining stability
• Supporting motor planning and body awareness through sequencing movement and judging distance
• Providing sensory and proprioceptive input to support physical regulation and movement confidence
• Encouraging active participation in therapy sessions, classrooms, outdoor play and home routines
• Building confidence and independence as children complete achievable movement challenges

Made from durable high-density PP plastic, these stepping stones are designed for repeated use in busy educational, therapeutic and home environments. Each stone features an anti-slip base to help improve stability and safety during movement activities, while the stackable design allows for easy storage and quick pack-up between sessions.

Whether used as part of a therapy program, sensory circuit, classroom movement break or home-based gross motor activity, the Balance Stepping Stones Starfish set offers a simple and engaging way to support physical development, movement confidence and meaningful participation.
