Rollers are a frequently used physiotherapy tool. They provide the child with motor disabilities to control the trunk and acquire a correct posture. Transforming a rehabilitation aid into a friendly animal (in this case, a rabbit)helps children carry out motor exercises in a playful and engaging atmosphere. Allowing the child to choose the roller according to its shape, whether it is a real or a fantasy animal, is a fundamental aspect from a psychomotor and cognitive point of view. The child becomes an active player in their game, chooses their favourite animal, and compares the various pieces available and makes their roller.
