Gifts for Kids: SWEETS KENDAMAS (giveaway - CLOSED)

Sweets Kendamas

Sweets Kendamas


As soon as I mentioned the possibility of doing a holiday gift guide again this year on the blog, my son began his campaign to have me include this very cool toy. To be honest I had no clue what a kendama was. If you are similarly clueless, here it is, straight from Wikipedia: The kendama is a traditional Japanese toy consisting of a ken (sword) and tama (ball) connected by a string. The ken has three cups and a spike which fits into the hole in the ball. Basic kendama tricks consist of catching the ball in the cups and on the spike, however a huge variety of kendama tricks can be performed by juggling the ball between the cups, balancing it in various positions on the ken, balancing the ken on the ball and juggling the kendama.
My little man wanted to Instagram his kendama just as soon as he got it.

The makers of Sweets Kendamas believe that the kendama is about never giving up and learning that practice makes the impossible become not only feasible but attainable. The kendama increases focus and hand-eye coordination while building self-confidence. Visit the Sweets Kendamas online shop to see the range of cool colours and styles they offer. (I love this Rasta style kendama.) Sweets Kendamas are assembled, painted and packaged in the U.S.



The really great thing from my perspective is that my son has been spending a lot of time perfecting the art of kendama. That means less time spent hunched over his iPad.
