A method of encapsulating content with calcium alginate membrane to form a capsule. The method includes embedding sodium alginate into a traditional gelatin ribbon used in gelatin encapsulation, adding calcium to a fill material, encapsulating the fill material, and then denaturing the gelatin in the shell. An exemplary use of this method is to form throwable paintballs; however, other products could be formed using this process. A paintball formed by this process is also disclosed.

Training apparatuses are provided that include a substantially spherical, hollow shell formed from a pair of hemispherical portions. The hemispherical portions may each include an annular peripheral edge having a fastening mechanism, which may be adapted to provide rigidity and structure to the training apparatus. At least one hemispherical portion may further include a number of protrusions extending along an inner surface from the peripheral edge, the protrusions configured to provide structural support and durability to the training apparatus.

A generally ovoid handheld massager with a massage wheel and a thick gel-like elastomeric material covering the gripping portion of the ovoid body is described. The gel material allows a user to squeeze the body in his/her hand much like a stress ball. Additionally, one or more ovular indentations are provided into the ovoid body permitting a user to rest his/her thumb or other finger therein during use.

The invention herein is directed to an Easter related game and method of play. The invention is intended to be played during Easter celebration, preferably by re-using found Easter Eggs or alternatively with any rollable oval, oblong, or ovoid object. The game of this invention comprising the following tools or game pieces: a rolling ramp and a plurality of oval, oblong, or ovoid objects, preferably Easter eggs. The game may be played by one or more participant or groups of participants.

A toy water ball includes at least two shells that are enclosable to form a water storage cavity, each of the shells including: a mounting frame, a magnetic member and a water pocket mounted on the mounting frame. The mounting frame includes a first surface and a second surface oppositely arranged in a thickness direction thereof. When the shells are enclosed to form the water storage cavity, magnetic members of adjacent shells attract each other, and second surfaces of adjacent shells abut each other. The mounting frame is provided with an accommodation groove, a notch of the accommodation groove is located on the first surface, the magnetic member is installed in the accommodation groove, and the water pocket is connected to the first surface, and covers the notch of the accommodation groove on the first surface to seal the magnetic member in the mounting frame.

A toy wall ball includes a pair of petals and a connecting portion connecting the petals. Each petal includes a body, a frame extending inward from the body and a magnetic attraction assembly embedded between the body and the frame. Each magnetic attraction assembly includes magnetic members and a fixing member including fixing cases and connecting strips. Each fixing case encloses a corresponding magnetic member and is connected to a connecting strip. When the petals are in a closed state, the petals jointly enclose and define a water-carrying cavity, and the magnetic members of the petals attract each other to have the frames of the petals tightly contact each other to form a water retaining layer that seals the water-carrying cavity. The connection area between the magnetic members and the frame and body is increased, thereby greatly reducing the risk of the magnetic members falling off the petals and improving safety.
