Depending on the ball or object that is being hit, decide if you want to let it bounce between batting the ball.

2

Try playing on your knees rather than standing up.

3

Add a net (chair, line of books set upright, or shoes) to hit the ball over.

4

Play against each other by marking out an area for each player that the opposite player must hit the ball into. The ball can be bounced once or twice to score a point.
