parachut game
When introducing a parachute to a group of children, we have found it fun and beneficial to do the following:
With the children sitting in a large circle, place the parachute, rolled tightly in its bag, in the middle... Ask the children what they think it might be. When all the guesses have been discussed as to their likelihood (e.g. why the suggestion of ¡®an elephant¡¯ might not quite fit!), pull out one tiny piece of the parachute and give it to one of the children to hold. Guessing continues as the chute is pulled out so that the whole group is holding a section of the outer rim. Excitement increases as the size becomes apparent and so the first thing to do is to expend some energy by jumping up and down and giving it a good shaking.
