HOW TO PLAY
1

A group of players holds the edges of a sturdy blanket taut and level, spaced evenly around it.

2

Place the soft object in the center of the blanket.

3

Working together, players pull and release the blanket in rhythm to launch the object upward.

4

The group tries to keep the object bouncing as high and as long as possible without letting it fall off the blanket.

5

If the object falls to the ground, the group starts a new count from zero and tries to beat their previous best.

6

Compare the highest bounce count achieved across several attempts to see which group session wins bragging rights.
