Instructions
Ask Scouts to stand shoulder-to-shoulder in a tight circle.
Everyone should turn to face the same direction.
Scouts move closer together until there are no gaps between them.
On a count from the leader, everyone slowly attempts to sit on the lap of the Scout behind them.
If the circle collapses, allow the group to discuss what went wrong and try again.
Once successful, challenge the group to remain in position for a set period of time.
