Juggling is a fun and interesting activity, learning which you can amaze your friends and acquaintances. It can become a kind of hobby, for which only two things are needed: patience and props, that is, juggling balls. You can buy them, or you can make them yourself from improvised means.
It is necessary
- - nuts;
- - socks;
- - scotch tape;
- - tennis balls;
- - balloons;
- - water;
- - cereals;
- - sand.
Instructions
Step 1
It is desirable that the weight of the balls is large enough so that they feel good in the hand, since it is inconvenient to juggle with light balls. Measure out the required amount of "ballast" (take nuts or lead shot), put it in a plastic bag and tie it up. Place the bag in a sock, roll it up to form a spherical shape (diameter 5, 5 centimeters). Wrap it with duct tape, being careful to keep it round. Do not wrap very tightly, otherwise the balls will become hard and hit your hands. Make several layers so that the top layers can be removed as the balls become dirty. This method allows you to adjust the size, weight and softness of the ball. You can take socks of different thickness, stretch the tape in different ways when wrapping, choose different materials for the ballast.
Step 2
Buy tennis balls. Draw water into the syringe and fill each one to the end. To decorate them, take two balloons for each juggling ball. Cut off their necks. Pull them from different sides in turn so that the second one covers the opening of the first. These balls are easy to control. If you are comfortable with juggling tennis balls without water, then you do not need to fill them.
Step 3
Take balloons, use a funnel to pour cereals into them (buckwheat, rice, breadcrumbs are also suitable), tie a knot and cut it off. Pull another ball over the knot. Unfortunately, they tear quickly and smell like rubber.
Step 4
Buy plastic balls at a sports store. Make a funnel out of paper. Use scissors to poke holes in the balls and pour about half of the salt through the funnel. You can use sand or grits as in the previous version. Cover the hole with tape or tape.
Step 5
As a last resort, you can juggle with suitable improvised means: oranges, potatoes, crumpled paper wrapped in tape.
