pompon
Cheerleader's shaking accessory
A pompon is a decorative ball of fluffy material—yarn, paper, or fabric strips—used as an ornament on clothing, especially hats, or as a prop by cheerleaders.
The spelling pom-pom is equally common.
Cheerleaders shake pompons during routines to add visual flair and emphasize movements.
The term also applies to certain varieties of chrysanthemum and dahlia with compact, globe-shaped flower heads.
