"Surprising" Phenomenon

Why do children find it easier to catch balls when they are thrown faster?

Objective

Any hypothesis explaining this phenomenon must state a difference between balls thrown slowly and balls thrown at high speeds. This difference must result in children more easily catching balls thrown at high speeds.
