Work as a team to pass a hula-hoop around the circle without unlinking hands. This group activity helps children practice communication, collaboration, and problem solving.

• 1 or 2 hula-hoops

1. Participants form a circle and hold hands.
2. Two people let go and re-link hands through a hula-hoop.
3. Without unlinking hands, pass the hula-hoop around the circle in one direction and make it back to where it started. Be careful not to yank on arms while holding hands.

Try this add-on activity:

• Use two hoops and send them in opposite directions, so they must cross at one point. It helps if the hoops are different colors.
