MATERIALS
- A pair of bamboo stilts with foot rests attached
HOW TO PLAY
1
Stand the stilts upright and step one foot at a time onto the raised foot rests.
2
Hold the top of each stilt pole firmly while finding your balance in a stationary position first.
3
Once steady, take small careful steps forward, moving each stilt pole slightly ahead before shifting weight onto it.
4
Practice turning gradually rather than pivoting sharply, since sudden turns are the most common cause of falls.
5
For a group activity, players can race across a set distance or see who can stay upright the longest.
6
Step down safely by lowering one stilt foot rest close to the ground before stepping off completely.
