Balloon Balance

Active, outdoors/indoors

Equipment: Per team: 1 big balloon; 1 small balloon.

Formation: Relay.

Divide the group into teams of six to eight players. Each team is given one large and one small balloon.

The first player of each group, on the word 'Go', balances the smaller balloon on top of the larger one and races to the other end of the playing area. If the top balloon falls off, the player must return to the starting line and begin again.

When the 'run' (or walk) is complete, the player takes both balloons in his hands and runs back to the starting line, where the second player is waiting to race.

The first team finished and sitting down, wins.
