Cup-and-ball catch game

Practise hand-eye coordination with a catch game

The old bilboquet: swing a ball on a cord up into the 59 mm cup. The cord runs up the hollow handle and out through the cup floor, so the knot sits safely inside the handle end and nothing snags on a swing. A table-tennis ball keeps it gentle indoors.
