Pillow Keeper Relay: set-up pillowG

A two-marker goal with the pillow on the ground to one side; you roll, they save and roll or throw it back.

Set up

  • Your child guards a goal with the pillow on the ground to one side.

Garden or park.

How to play

  • You roll the ball along the ground.
  • They save it and pass it back to you with a roll or throw.
  • Then they touch the pillow and get back into position.
  • Swap after 10 rolls.

Make it easier

Make it harder

  • Throw it back to a target (a hat or bucket).

Three things to say

  • Get set before the roll, save with two hands, then move.

Colts habit

Work hard: ten saves and ten pillow touches.

Both feet

Roll back with each hand.

Heads up

Get set and look before every roll.

Safety: Soft grass. Ground rolls only.

Saves out of 10. Last time and this time. Only ever compared with your own earlier go, never with anyone else. Saved on this device only.
