HOW TO PLAY
1

Set up a low, stable balance beam over a soft-mat landing area.

2

One partner crosses the beam first while carrying a light object, such as a small bucket of beanbags.

3

Upon reaching the end, they hand off the object to their partner, who carries it back across.

4

If either partner steps off the beam, they must restart their crossing.

5

The pair with the fastest completed round trip without a fall wins.
