FlagHouse Activity Channel, great job. I like some of the activities you did in the video. Tidal wave was a cool one. I thought of some parachute ideas that you can try. I suggest if you use these ideas, you may want to use the rainbow colored Superchute, so it will be easy for the kids to see what they are doing. Ideas include: 1. Mushroom- the same idea as Tent that you did in the video, where everyone holds the edge of the parachute, lifts it up, then takes 2 or 3 steps forwards as the parachute forms a "mushroom" look before floating down. I suggest you don't step backwards when the parachute floats down, but let the parachute float down completely if you use this idea. Moving back can actually cause kids to trip on the parachute or become more tangled in it. 2. Floating Cloud/Lift and Release- Everyone holding the edge of the parachute, then when it lifts into the air, you let go of it and let it float where ever it goes, then start over once the parachute has completely stopped falling. 3. Under the Sea- For this one, everyone gets on their knees, holding the edges of the parachute while making the parachute flat on the ground. 3 or 4 kids goes under the parachute, while everyone -still on their knees- flaps the parachute up and down, creating waves, while the kids under the parachute "swims" to the middle of the parachute. If the parachute has a hole in the middle, I do not recommend the kids stick a body part - head, arm, ect.- into the hole since I could see that, with the flapping being a safety problem. Just have the students say "okay" or something when they reach the middle. After the kids makes it to the middle, everyone stops flapping the parachute. The kids can then stand up and try to get out from under the parachute on their own, unless adult help is needed. If you do this, use a mat to help the kids "swim" under the parachute so they don't get hurt while on the floor. 4. Parachute Tag- For this game, everyone holds the parachute by it's edges. You all lift the parachute into the air, and let some kids run under it to get to the other side. However, as the kids run under the parachute, everyone quickly brings the parachute down to try and trap the kids under the parachute. If the kids makes it to the other side, you continue. If they get trapped under the parachute - where the parachute "tags" them- the kids goes back to their original spot. 5. London Bridge- Although there are many versions, I found one that would be interesting to do. Everyone holds the edges of the parachute, while lifting it up and down, singing the song "London Bridge is Falling Down". Every time the parachute goes up, a kids runs under it -trying to get to the other side- before the parachute falls on them. However, when you get to the part "take the keys and lock her up" the group quickly lowers the parachute to try and "lock" whoever is going under the parachute. You then keep holding the parachute while the kids tries to get out from under the parachute. Once they are out, continue the song, or start over again, repeating the idea. 6. Getting Out- The idea for this one, is for half of the people in the group to go under the parachute, while the other half holds the parachute. You count to 3, but after 3, the kids under the parachute have to try and get out, while the people outside, holding the edges of the parachute, try to make it so the kids don't escape from under the parachute. I suggest using a mat under the parachute for safety if you use this idea. 7. Ghost Tag- a similar game to "Ghost in the Graveyard", the idea is to have some kids go under the parachute and pretend to be ghosts. As the "ghosts" walk around, they have to try and tag the people who are outside of the parachute. If the "ghost" tags you, you and the kid switch, so the person who got tagged becomes the new ghost. The "ghost" must have their head and arms covered by the parachute in order for a tag to count. No hands or arms sticking out. If the ghost's hand touches your hand while under the parachute, that is fine. I hope this helps. Please reply back and let me know which of these ideas will work for your videos. Thank you.

I love parachutes

Thanks for watching! This is a 30 foot diameter parachute. You need a big space and lots of hands.

Do they have to take off their socks and shoes i remember doing this in school and we had to take our shoes off when we did parachute

House rules! Depends on the activities you plan on doing or material you're playing on. On this episode we were on a soft gymnastic tumbling floor, so socks give almost as good of a grip as shoes.
