Then honing their throwing skills as they aim to knock down smaller and narrower pins this week!

The Joy & Peace children not only practiced with throwing skills,
they also learn to estimate the flight of the ball and defend their pins!
Each child will have a turn at
being the attacker (to knock down the pins) and
the defender (to prevent the balls from hitting the pins)
in a given time frame.
