Review on 🌈 High-Quality and Durable Play Platoon 6ft 12ft Parachute for Kids - Fun Multicolored Parachute with Handles by Jason Spainhour

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Withstood the grueling exertion of 100 kids ages 5-13 playing popcorn with a parachute!

We had a big spiritual summit and were responsible for 1 hour of indoor sports for the youth. So we decided to play a parachute game using 2 of these parachutes plus 5-7 inch spiked balloons (about 25 for each parachute) - and we added a twist to the popcorn parachute game. into a fun game with a spiritual message. First, we started by getting them used to the parachute by holding either the handles if they were very young (or both sides of the handles if they were a bit older or "more energetic"). children) and create gentle waves on a parachute with a funny story about how hot it was and for them to cool down; then we had them synchronously create huge waves; then a huge mushroom where they filled it with air after a huge wave and just sat outside the parachute and touched the edges of the bottom and finally we had them get up and repeat the same games but we threw knotted balls from the top of the parachute (something like that like a parachute for popcorn) - and at one point we yelled "volcano" when there were about 15-20 balloons on the parachute and had them pull the parachute hard to form a mushroom like before. the bullets were there, it would look like a volcanic eruption - and ordered them to go into the mushroom together as quickly as possible to avoid getting hit by the exploding bullets. At the end we had 10 minutes left. Meeting where we discussed the key spiritual message of being so young and the importance of keeping good company and listening to advice from more experienced members of the mission/our elders to avoid some of the bad things that happened to them in life could come their way (referring to the balls that fall on them when we yell "volcano"). We also asked them to share their thoughts and what they have learned - it was amazing and refreshing to hear from you at such a young age. Overall it was a very fun time for the kids and for us and the parachutes held the power of 100 different energetic kids aged 5 to 13 spinning in and out of this game. At the very end we quickly played dodgeball with different knot balls – boys against girls. 50/50, that was great!
