Parachute Activities

Go for Goal

The children stand around the edge of the parachute and hold on to the edge with both hands at waist height.

The teacher then splits the group in half, one group on one side of the circle and the other group on the other side. This can be done by girls and boys, or by children wearing different coloured shirts, or easier just tell the children where the group splits etc.

The idea of the game is to place a ball on the parachute and it is the job of the two teams to try and shoot the ball into the other team's goal. The goal is basically the whole half of the circle opposite and a team scores a goal by flipping the ball off the parachute over the heads of the opposite team.

This game requires the children to work as a team and co-operate with each other. They must work out the best way to get the ball to bounce off the parachute into the other team's goal (other half of the circle).

This activity is great fun but children must try to be as gentle as possible with each other as they try to work the parachute.
