I have a few kiddos on my caseload right now with hemiplegia that are so good at accommodating and doing things with their less affected hand, that it is a challenge to get them to use both hands!
Blocks are not exciting enough, wind-up toys can be too difficult, but the Bumble Ball, Junior is just right! Holding the ball in one hand and pulling the string with the other provides just the right amount challenge. And they love the vibration of the ball, which motivates them to pull the string over and over again, strengthening the more affected arm!
