Helium Stick
The Helium Stick activity promotes teamwork and communication among participants. In this engaging exercise, participants must work together to lower a lightweight stick using only their fingertips, which often leads to surprising challenges and laughter.

Suggerimenti
Use humor as the stick often seems to float, which can confuse participants.
If the group succeeds quickly, ensure they are truly keeping fingers in contact.
Consider adding weights for added difficulty if the group is consistently successful.
Variazioni
You can use a hula hoop instead of a stick for a different experience.
