Sorry took so long to reply.


Understandable Teri.

As far as his therapy - it was their
recommendation to do it at home and the only steps we have are narrow
spiral. We could use the exercise stepper (single plastic step) and I
have been using that - she gave me a list of items I needed - a 4"
thick tumbling mat, a huge ball, a balance board, a balance beam


(snips)

They need me to keep his musle tone up and
gave me the instructions on what to do. They have a 1 acre play yard
and we live in TX so we can be outside most of the year. I am also


Good, that helps alot.

participating in the play. I called and there were only 4 steps up
and 4 steps down - I just couldn't rememb er.....


Much easier to manage there. I think with only 4 steps, I'd just use
2ftx2ft 'stepping stones' which come in 3 inch depths and make some fairly
thick 'slipcovers' for them of blankets and such. These could be moved
about to provide variety which he needs to maintain interest. In dry
weather, can be used outside too.

You can probably find something like this in firm foam as well?
