How to Play
  • Have all children hold the parachute with two hands.
  • Raise the parachute up and down three times, and on the third time hold the parachute high.
  • While the parachute is in the air, call out two names that have to run under the parachute and out the other side.
  • Repeat this until all children have had a turn.
Change it up / Alternatives / Additional Options
  • Add more people to the names that are called.
  • Shout the colours of the parachute and anyone holding that colour has to move
  • When you want to finish the activity, say that everyone has to try and get under the parachute!
