I'm doing 37 things
I started to learn at camp this summer, but I need to find a good set of balls to practice with. I could practice with tennis balls outside, but not when it’s snowy and freezing, and it’s hard to juggle tennis balls because they’re a little bigger than you’d want, and they’re bouncy.
