Finger-tip Hula Hoop
Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK
Description
In this game, children stand in a circle and raise their arms with only their index fingers extended. The group supervisor places a hula hoop so that it rests on the tips of the children’s fingers. Children are told that they must maintain a fingertip on the hula hoop at all times, but are not allowed to hook their finger around it or otherwise hold the hoop; the hoop must simply rest on the tips of their fingers. The challenge is for the children to lower the hoop to the ground without dropping it. To make this more challenging, you can place communication constraints on the children—no talking or limited talking, for example, or get them to move the hoop around a series of obstacles.
