Join the Fun with Our Pass the Ball Program!Â

Get ready for an exciting game of teamwork and mystery! This week, we’re launching our Pass the Ball Program where kids will gather in a circle to pass a ball around while one clever detective stands in the middle, trying to guess who’s hiding it!Â

How It Works:
Gather in a Circle: All participants form a circle, with one detective in the center.
Pass the Ball: The kids will pass the ball around quickly while keeping it a secret!
Detective’s Challenge: The detective must watch closely and guess who has the ball. If they guess right, they switch places!
Why Join Us?
Teamwork: Kids will learn to work together and communicate.
Critical Thinking: The detective will sharpen their observation skills.
