Trick Color Ball Play!

Let children play freely with cardboard boxes equipped with various features—such as slanted boxes or ones with holes—and colorful balls.

By observing how the balls roll, or watching the balls visible through the holes, they may make new discoveries.

After they see the basic movements, it’s recommended to add parts to create more complex motion.

Encourage them to carefully observe where to place the balls on each feature and what outcomes result from those choices.

Play to develop hazard awareness

http://www.lemon8-app.com

By catching only balls of the specified color, children can develop hazard awareness.

You’ll use a pool cue and colored balls.

Cut the pool cue lengthwise in half and join the halves to make a rail.

Set it up on a table, then roll various colored balls down it.

Ask your child to use the pool cue to catch only the balls in the color you told them beforehand.

Seeing, deciding, and moving instantly—this experience will surely help give children the power to protect themselves from danger.

A game where you guess the color of the ball you’re holding

What color do you have?? Guess the color my sister has in a psychological battle!! #psychologicalgame #telepathygame #HarukunRoom #Osaki #Haruo

It’s a game where you try to guess, through conversation, which color ball—out of three colors—the person on the other side of a wall is holding.

One player skillfully uses words to steer the other’s choice of ball, while the other keeps swapping balls to avoid being guessed.

Think about how to phrase things so the other person will switch to your ideal ball, drawing on everyday patterns of thought to guide them.

Try to exchange as many words as possible, and when you swap balls, clearly declare a color—even if it’s not the correct one—to keep the game running smoothly.

Flappy Ball Carrying Relay

[Crew Challenge! Fluttering Fan Ball Carry] Take on the game of moving colored balls to the goal using a handheld fan! #ChildDevelopmentSupport #TherapyPreparation #CrewChallenge #ColorBalls #FanPlay #Concentration

Here’s an arranged version of a relay where you carry a ball using a uchiwa fan.

The rules are very simple: you fan a colored ball with the uchiwa and carry it to the goal.

Because colored balls are light, they don’t always go in the direction you expect.

It helps build concentration, and it’s fun for the whole team to celebrate when the ball makes it into the goal.

You might also try mixing in balls other than colored balls.

It’s a great idea to get creative and incorporate it into your sports day events!
