Apparatus and method for collecting and throwing a fluid

A toy apparatus for throwing fluid, the apparatus comprising:

• a base made from substantially fluid-tight, flexible material, the base having an outer periphery:
• a throwing handle configured to attach to or near the periphery of the base to provide support for the base when containing a fluid, at least a portion of the throwing handle being flexible;
• and
• a drag component having two ends, one end being attached to a location on the base, wherein the drag component includes a weighted element that flexibly hangs below the base when the base is held by the handle.

A method of throwing fluid as part of a game, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing a toy apparatus comprising a base made from substantially fluid-tight, flexible material, the base having an outer periphery, and a throwing handle configured to attach to or near the periphery of the base to provide support for the base when containing a fluid, at least a portion of the throwing handle being flexible:
• holding the handle and placing the base in a fluid reservoir;
• causing fluid to flow onto the base;
• lifting the handle so as to cause the base to form a scoop containing an amount of fluid;
• swinging the base with the fluid inside the scoop and releasing the handle;
• and
• causing the fluid to dispense from the base while in flight.
