PLAYERS
4-12
DIFFICULTY
SETTING
Both
MATERIALS
- Long palm leaves or strips of green paper or ribbon to substitute
- Reference picture of a simple woven shape like a fan or basket base
HOW TO PLAY
1
Give each player or pair an identical bundle of long frond strips and a picture showing a simple finished woven shape to aim for.
2
On the signal, players race to weave their strips into the shown shape using a basic over-under braiding technique.
3
Players may ask a teammate for help holding strips steady but must do their own weaving.
4
The first player or pair to raise a completed, intact woven shape calls out to stop the round.
5
Compare the finished piece to the reference picture before confirming the win, since an incomplete or unraveling piece can be asked to keep working while others continue.
