Silent Ball

Activity

Silent Ball

Set out markers in a circle - 1 for each participant. A participant stands behind a marker. Participants then throw the ball around the space to other participants and they must catch the ball without speaking. You can make this more difficult by calling hot potato which means participants have to throw the ball quickly, say a fruit - catchers must catch and say the name of a fruit, 1 hand catch, 1 hand behind your back on knee on the ground etc.

Notes
  • Requires 1 markers per person, 1-2 balls (can be large soft balls, soccer ball or similar. Not a basketball or anything too hard).
  • May require some adjustment to suit Pre-School aged children, the elderly, pregnant women or SEND participants
