Parachutes

Parachutes are a game that gets every child on their feet so that they’re excited to join in. Waiting their turn patiently for a go under the canopy. Give everyone a section to hold and wave up and down and you’ll be able to help them improve their listening skills. Create patterns and waves with the parachute, call out a song, or count the number of waves up and down. At the same time two lucky contestants will be racing to find counters or bean bags underneath the canopy.

Showing the importance of patience is also something you can do here. You’ll give a real-world example of how everyone can benefit from teamwork, while they learn to wait their turn. Every child will get excited to have a go and see if they can beat the fastest time and retrieve all of the items.

You don’t have to do treasure hunt type games if you don’t want to. Use the parachute to call out different colours to hop to, as a giant play mat, or to make a massive hiding spot. The only limit here is your own imagination and it will bring some incredible games to life before you know it.

Each kid who gets to go under the parachute will come back out a hero. Cheering and shouting as they support their class mate. A great way to boost confidence and show them they can do anything they set their mind to.

Specialist Equipment: A lightweight, non-rip parachute that can be used to play dozens of games.

Hours of Fun: Every player will get to try and set a new record for the fastest time to find everything under the flapping parachute.

Teamwork Exercises: Create beautiful patterns by getting everyone waving in unison to a certain rhythm.
