foam balls

Soft throwable toys

Foam balls are lightweight spheres made from expanded polystyrene or similar synthetic foam materials.

They come in various sizes and are used in crafts, floral arrangements, science projects, and as toy projectiles in blasters like Nerf guns.

Their soft, compressible nature makes them safe for indoor play: The kids were shooting foam balls at each other all afternoon.
