We don&#8217;t buy Christmas gifts at our house; instead, we make them! Years and years ago my little brother made these juggling balls for me and included some instructions on how to juggle (this was before Youtube).<\/p>\n<p>I had a blast practicing all Christmas day and for quite some time afterward. The next year, I made some for him, and now I think everyone in the family owns their own set of homemade juggling balls. It&#8217;s one of the more memorable Christmas gifts we&#8217;ve come up with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">These balls are so simple even very small children can make them. Plop them in a home-sewn sack, print off some juggling instructions, and you&#8217;ve got the perfect Christmas gift!<\/p>\n<div class=\"fancymaterials\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">Materials<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>3 balloons per ball<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup rice per ball<\/li>\n<li>funnel<\/li>\n<li>scissors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left\">Instructions<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Start by stretching out a balloon.
