It is an ideal computer text aid or cook book holder. Molded of strong plastic, it consists of a flat base, a backrest, and two adjustable pegs, which prevent pages from flipping yet allow for easy page turning.

Another fun game to play at home with a PhysioBall
To encourage a child to reach across the midline (reach past the center of their body) try seating them on a physiotherapy ball in the kitchen and ask them to pick large magnetic shapes off of the refrigerator with the far-side hand.
