Do you know the "balero" (mexican toy) and the "kendama" (japanese toy) ?
Kendama
Both are traditional toys and it's way of playing is very similar !!
It is generally a wooden handle, to which a small ball is attached by a string.
In Mexico the "balero" has a spike, which the player tries to catch the ball.
A similar toy with three cups and a spike called "kendama" is very popular in Japan and has spread globally in popularity.
The main goal of the game is to get the ball into the cup. While the concept is very easy, mastering the game sometimes requires many hours of practice, haha.
So either you get one from Mexico or from Japan, please try it and call me when you can make some tricks !!
