Magic Carpet

Split into teams of 8 to 12 people.

Each team will be given a large piece of paper, towel, or rugas a magic carpet and all team members will be standing on it. You start out the game by telling teams the following:

You are on a magic carpet, thousands of feet up in the sky. But you're not going anywhere because your carpet is upside down. The object is to flip the carpet back upright without anyone falling off into the abyss. You can use your hands.

The team that reverses its carpet first without anyone stepping off is the winner.

                We played this game without using their hands...once they mastered that...they had to fold the tarp w/out using their hands and no one "falling off"...then fold it again...and again..the group was very creative in keeping everyone on

                how big should the standing surface - tarp, carpet, paper, etc. be?
