In brief: Travel from one point to another with the minimum number of balloon hits.
Intensity: High
Introduction: Here is a ‘point-to-point’ game.
Prop(s): A balloon per player.
How to play:
- Each person inflates a balloon.
- The person will hit the balloon forward and try to catch it before it hits the floor (see picture – top right).
- Consider each hit-and-catch as 1 point. If the balloon drops on the floor, it is equivalent to 3 points.
- The person with the minimum points when travelling from one part of the venue to another wins.
- Of course, integrity is needed here.
Caution:
- Ask the players to be aware of their environment (drain, poles, etc) as they run from one point to another.
Variation(s):
- Filling the balloon with a little water will make it bounce further.
