Game Description:
Cooperative game for children of all ages.
Objective:
To work as a team to keep the balls continuously moving throughout the circle.
Game Rules:
Children begin by sitting in a circle with their legs stretched out into a v-shape, their feet touch the people beside them. Begin by throwing a ball into the circle. When the ball comes to a child, they should roll it away as fast as they can so that the ball does not stop moving. As a team, the children will see how long they can keep the ball moving. Once children understand the game add more dodge balls, as it increases difficulty and fun!
Progression (optional):
To increase difficulty have children stand up and try and keep the ball moving with out stopping or rolling out of the circle.
