A ball is miraculously balanced and bounced on a rope.
Put a ball on a table. Stretch a rope out with two hands and loop it underneath the ball. Say the Magic words:Shimmer Shimmering.
Move the rope away from the table swiftly and magically balance the ball on it.
Rock the ball from side to side and bounce it up in the air.
Allow the ball to drop on the floor and as it bounces up, catch it on the rope again.
You can also bounce the ball up and down on the rope as you are balancing it.
