Scarf Juggling

Scarf Juggling
This is real juggling but even the
clumsiest of us (that's me) can do it
in a fairly short time.
You need 3 colorful, thin nylon squares to start. Hold one in one hand and two in
the other. Toss one of those two a couple of feet in the air and then toss the
single square from your other hand directly across to the hand that launched the
first square upward.
Now you catch the falling square with your empty hand.
Continue with this sequence for a few seconds, then try some variations or even
add a fourth square to the mix.
It is fairly easy to keep the squares jumping and to catch them because the
squares float a little. You don't have to be as polished or nimble as the
experienced jugglers who use balls, clubs and even axes.
Keep your routine short until you have worked out some variations that make it
more entertaining for your audience.
A short routine like this needs a surprise finish. One that works well is to have
another square with a small high-bounce ball sewn into it. Make sure that this
square matches the color of at least one of the regular squares you use in your
routine.
To finish, gather the squares together in one hand, then pick out the one with the
ball with your other hand and wipe your forehead with it. "Accidentally" drop
the square and your audience will be surprised to see the square fall, but then
bounce back up so that you can catch it!
