Tape Dancing

We put down a line of tape for the stance line and a couple smaller, perpendicular pieces where his feet go (think dowels minus the risk of the kid smashing stuff with the dowels). I put a little "X" so he could place the ball, also. He loves lining up to the marks with his feet and getting the ball exactly on the "X". He immediately started making consistent contact with the ball.
