Step-by-Step Instructions
- Ask your group to stand in a circle.
- By way of demonstration, teach your group how to act like popping corn, ie starting from a crouched-down position, teetering on your toes, jump into the air clapping your hands once and yell “POP!”
- Invite your group to practice popping like corn several times.
- Challenge your group to complete this task – over the course of the next 60 seconds, every person must pop once only, but not at the same time as another person.
- No one is permitted to establish a pattern, nor are they allowed to indicate or gesture to another person their intention to pop.
- When ready, everyone starts in a crouching position.
- If two (or more) people pop at the same time, re-start the exercise.
- Continue play until the task is complete, or your group’s energy starts to wane.
