No balls? No problem!

Let’s say your kid is one of those kids who wipes his hands on everything other than a napkin.  On his pants, on his hair, on the counter, on the couch, on the cat, on his coat…

So you have to wash the coat, but it’s one of those poofy coats that needs to be washed along with tennis balls or something like them.

You probably have other things in the house that are supposed to be washed with tennis balls, too, like pillow or comforters.

Just want you to know that there is a simple substitute: rolled up socks.  Turn a pair into a ball and throw them into the dryer along with whatever needs a little punching.  Easy peasy.

Side note: you can even toss a dryer sheet or two into each pair to make your balls smell better.
