Clumsy Catching
Enrichment Activity for 5-11 11-14
- Level Elementary
What you need
- A cone shaped party hat
- Scissors
- A soft ball
- A friend
Instructions
- Cut the tip off the party hat to make a hole about 2cm in diameter
- Wear the hat over your face
- Try to play catch with your friend using a soft ball
Results and Explanation
When you’re wearing the hat you can only see with one eye at a time. Without your normal, two-eyed, binocular vision you can’t judge distances as well and it’s much harder to catch the ball.
