What is tossing?

Tossing is when you throw something up into the air and watch it come back down, like when you flick a coin or bounce a ball.

Tossing is simple: you use your hand to send something flying upward, and then it falls back to you. It’s like giving something a little push so it goes up, and gravity pulls it back down again, just like when you jump and land on the floor.

When you toss a coin, for example, you flick it with your finger or thumb, and it spins through the air before landing in your hand. You can do this with balls too, like when you throw a ball up and catch it again. It’s like playing a game with gravity!

Sometimes, tossing is used to decide who gets to go first, like flipping a coin to see who wins. That's tossing in action.

You can toss many things: coins, balls, even little toys or leaves! It doesn’t have to be something special, just something you can send flying with your hand and catch again. The fun part is watching it go up and come back down, like a little dance in the air.
