I would like to order balls and bases for second and fifth grade special ed students. What size would work for both? Thanks!

I think the smallest size for sure! They are still little people then and I have the second size up and it's a little big, but it worked for my desk better to sit on.

Hi, if you're looking to buy the bases, I'm not sure on the size? The 30" ones we have in class are not used with bases. We have them inflated to each students liking for their comfort. They stay under their desks without a base. Hooet his helps!

It's the size that my second grader uses for practice and games. I believe commonly used for kids through elementary school because a bit smaller for their smaller hands.

Just a quick follow up, we bought one for our daughter who is 4' 6", 60-70lbs in 5th grade. We bought her a 29" 19 oz DeMarini, also called a drop 10 (-10). It's a good length and weight. You can find some good deals on these bats and if it's a starter, he will keep changing bats as his skill progresses. Good luck

I agree with the other answer. I separately purchased 150 balls in 3 inch size for a 2 year old child. An older child might need more of the balls to make a deeper play area.

It depends on what you will be using it for? I have a 65cm ball with this base and it is NOT a tight fit, although it does work for exercise and also helps to stabilize the ball for sitting on. I have two bases, one for the 65cm ball which I will be using at home for exercise and one for a larger size ball to sit on at work. I do think a 45cm ball is going to be ok but do not know for sure because that is not what I use? Either way I like the base, loose or not... :)

We have had excellent results with this machine -- the "baseballs" you select that "work" best depend upon whom is using the batting machine, and safety issues -- adults, older kids, younger kids -- our kids are 5 and 6, and they use the Franklin foam balls #14941 (sold in 2-paks), which work great for them (with padded 27" bat) -- some of the other balls sold may be better for older batters --

No difference in the ball itself other than the size. When playing organized ball, league rules dictate what size ball may be used. The 29.5 is for the ages of 13 and above.

Thanks Cindy! I just did a better search, and found an order form on the hasboro site. http://www.hasbro.com/customer-service/orderform.cfm?sku=39070Its $4.00 for 5 plastic balls! And you have to fill out an order form to mail.

Typically, individuals less than 4 feet, 6 inches require a 30 cm ball. You should choose a 45 cm ball if you are between 4 feet, 6 inches to 5 feet tall. From 5 feet to 5 feet, 5 inches, select a 55 cm ball. If you are between 5 feet, 6 inches and 6 feet, 2 inches, use a 65 cm ball. If your height exceeds 6 feet, 2 inches tall, opt for a 75 cm ball.

I wondered the same thing. On the manufacturer's web site it says - Colors and sizes may vary. They also sell 2.5", 2.8", and 3" balls. They call the 3" ball large. Pretty lame if you ask me.

3~4 small toddlers is what the ball pit was designed for. 1000 pcs of the larger 3" crush-proof balls will be ideal for the ball pit. Please check Amazon listing: 1000 pcs Crush-Proof Phthalate Free non-PVC Plastic Ball Pit Balls in 5 Colors - 3.1" Air-Filled - Guaranteed Crush-Proof or Your Money Back (for Home Use Only) . However, if you are buying the smaller 2.5" balls, you would need about 2000 pcs instead and would cost you much more money.

I have ordered about 12 of these balls. So far, I have gotten what they show. They do have the option to send you something different if that style is not available. If it shows Hello Kitty, order it.. I really don' think you'll get something different. Also make sure you get the right size. My grandkids can't get enough of these. I don't think a day has gone by that they haven't used them ( We are raising 2 toddlers). If the kids are 3 and under, get the 15 inch. Any bigger , go the 18 inch. Good luck!

You need to order the Easton Black Magic Junior Sku 58831 AE. Also, the black set is the only 6-8 size, the red and royal blue only start at 9-12 age/size. I've used both, both and very good sets.

My 7 year old and 10 year old both use the Jr. size. They've worked great and are the only pair my girls don't complain about. Well worth the money.
