"Driving while driving" or "studying while doing" or "XX while doing ●●" is usually a bad act. Recently, "walking while messing around with smartphones" has become widespread throughout the city, calling attention to the danger.

However, such a "while" would be very welcome. "The Kickball Ice Cream Maker" allows you to make ice cream while playing with a ball. It is sold on the US mail order site Hammacher.com.


"The Kickball Ice Cream Maker" is an ice cream maker that puts ingredients in a ball-shaped container and "shake" it, and the ice cream is ready in about 20 minutes. The size of the ball is about the size of volleyball.

Put cream, sugar, vanilla (and other flavors) in a container and put ice and rock salt in another compartment. After closing the lid tightly, shake, kick and roll for 20 minutes. When you open the container, about 470 ml of ice cream is completed . What a fun and convenient item!


In a family with children, parents and children can enjoy making ice cream while playing catch and playing soccer, and they can also make it while playing with pets such as dogs and cats. I think it's a nice idea product, but the only weakness is that it may not be so much fun alone.
