Bowling Balls? en>fr fr>en

I have a tap trio (13-16) they are dancing to Lets Bowl- Grease 2. I need some bowling balls that are light weight that the can actually roll. My idea is to have a few of them and get them to roll them off the stage then grab another one. Any Ideas? They cheaper the better. I thought of using the bouncy balls at wal-mart but when we tried to roll them they were bouncing off stage instead. Styrofoam is kind of expensive for my idea. Maybe you have a cheap place to buy it at? Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance!

You can find some cheap, lightweight ones in sets like this - www.shindigz.com . . . But I know you don't need the pins, right? Have you tried Toys R Us? They might carry Fisher Price ones.

Just a thought, but check out a few yard sales or consignment shops that advertise kids toys. You may find a bowling set or two real cheap ;)

Nerf type balls might be better than bouncy balls...you might even be able to drill holes in the nerf ball

The spongy/foam type kickball (I think that's what you mean by Nerf?) might work good.

I remember we used spongey/foam balls in p.e. when I was a kid. those would definitely work. google pe classroom tools/equipment or something to see what you can find.

You all are just so smart! You could see the light blub go off in my head when I read foam balls! So I'm looking into to find the cheapest place and all that good stuff. Thanks!
