Since she doesn't have much experience with volleyball yet (an unfortunate game of 'bruise ball' with my cousins when she was 5 kinda tainted her viewpoint), I have been looking for anything that might make practice seem more fun, and less ouchy to begin with. I found a bounce board on Amazon that I thought might do the trick, until I found the awesomeness that is "passing sleeves"!
Maybe they had passing sleeves when I was a kid, but I certainly didn't have them. They're arm covers to protect you from the sting of passing the ball when you're first learning. Brilliant! They were only about $20 on Amazon, but waiting the two days for the Prime shipping just seemed like agony to me, especially since I had a wrist warmer pattern that I could modify to make some for Mims myself.
Now, my color choices might not be your cup of tea, but Little Miss Mims is in a mismatching phase. She has gone to school the last two days with purposefully mismatched socks. So when I asked her what color she wanted for her sleeves, she picked out this combo. I dig it, it reminds me of Punky Brewster.
