Brain Break

EARTHBALL

1. The group task is to keep a beach ball in the air for a specified number of hits without letting it hit the ground (must stay seated or in their space).

2. Additionally, no one person can touch the object twice in a row.

3. Set a goal with the group for the number of hits that the group can make following the rules.

4. After your group meets its goal, it can increase the target number or go for a "world record" and see how many hits the group can accomplish.

5. This fun activity is much harder than it seems! If the group is struggling, give them an opportunity to review their strategy and create a plan for the next attempt.
