Toss and Catch Ball Game Set

Velleora Home Decor's Toss and Catch Ball Game Set is the sort of thing that lives in the boot of the car and gets used far more than anything expensive. Two curved paddles and a ball, and within a minute of arriving anywhere flat, everyone is playing.

The paddles are moulded with a deep scoop and a hook-and-loop face, so the ball sticks where it lands instead of bouncing away down the beach. That single detail is what makes the game work for young children and grandparents alike - the catch is forgiving, so rallies actually build. The handles are contoured with a textured grip that stays secure in wet hands, and the whole set is light enough for a small child to swing without tiring.

Play it on grass, sand, poolside or in a park. Give players plenty of space from each other and from anyone sitting nearby, and use a soft ball only. Rinse sand and salt off the hook-and-loop faces after a beach trip - grit is the one thing that reduces their grip over time - and let the set dry before it goes back in the bag.
