Children in all times and cultures have toys they fashion from things around them.. Did the children of Nazareth or Galilee or Egypt, or wherever Jesus was raised (as I know there are controversies about where he was raised) have hackey sacks? .. I understand that the first crude hackey sacks were designed by soldiers , after emasculating their enemies in battle .. But what toys did Jesus play with when he was young? .. Did Jesus have any balls?

Jesus was a frisbee dude...he was the first to attempt the under the leg jumping catch in the Galilee championships of 12 BC...
He came in second after Salome caught one with her clam was judged to be the winner

Yes, actually, the people of that era did indeed have balls. I can't remember specifically what they used anymore, I think it was a couple of animal bladders, cut in half, and sewn together to make a sphere, then blown up and tied like a balloon, with the 'valve' tucked inside. But they played games just like kids today, just more freeform. They'd kick the ball around, but it wasn't about keeping score or making goals, it was about trying to keep the ball in the middle of the group. They'd play hot potato, but without elimination. And so on.

Cute question and an intersting way to catch attention. He might have but we do not know.Children have always found ways to amuse themselves. Balls have been around for a log time. Perhaps made out of the bladder of a cow. Or just somthing like a horse apple. WHo knows. LOL

He probably had the same things as other kids, since He was
to experience Man's human existence.

Yes I think he used the devil's head many a time as a ball, he certainly kicked him into touch.

Jesus didnt exist. so yes he had tennis balls, cricket balls, ping pong balls, golf balls, basket balls, marbles, and in the afterlife he will have your balls.

They probably had something like a soccerball back then, maybe one made of rock?
