There are all KIND of ways to play with gliders-- but a lot of things a glider likes to do won't really include you so much. For example, when a glider comes out at night, it may just want to run around, climb things, jump off and glide to the floor! Some gliders will play fetch with you... have you ever seen those little puff balls? (Hard to describe what they are *hehehe* Betsy has them on her site, I'll leave the URL for you) If you toss those, some gliders will learn to play fetch, running to get it and then bringing it back to you! Some will even try to catch it. It all just depends on your glider. They all have different personalities, and, like us, they all have different things they enjoy doing for play. Your glider may just wanna climb all over you, or it may wanna run around without you. You may want to get it one of those plastic hamster balls so it can run around on the floor that way, but make sure there aren't any little cracks or anything inside that your glider's feet can get caught in. Just experiment with different forms of play, find out what your glider likes to do! Make up your own glider-safe-and-fun playtime activities. Hang a rope from your ceiling to your floor-- gliders like to climb!! Or do a little research on what kinds of plants are glider-safe and get one for your home so your glider can play in it (warning: the plant will probably end up destroyed due to over-excessive glider FUN!!) EXPERIMENT!! You will have LOTS of fun with your glider!
