Throw and tell ball

Each panel on the ball features a different preference or experience that anyone can talk about.

The questions are carefully chosen to focus on things that we all have memories of and can talk about. They work like a key to unlock memories that lead to more detailed discussions that involve sharing great memories and enjoyable experiences.

It's a simple way to break the ice in one-to-ones or group activities. It is full of questions about likes/dislikes and everyday experiences that everyone has answers for.

When a person catches the ball their thumbs will be on two different panels of the ball. They simply choose one of the panels and talk about it.
