Work in pairs to toss a water balloon from one pair’s towel to the next without dropping
or popping it. The team that successfully moves the balloon through all pairs and
reaches the finish wins! Split into equal teams, the teams should have 3 or more pairs.
Each pair stands side by side, holding a towel between them. Teams line up in a row,
spaced apart, to create a tossing path. The first pair starts with a water balloon on their
towel. The first pair launches the balloon using their towel toward the next pair. The next
pair must catch the balloon in their towel without letting it drop or pop. The balloon
continues down the line until it reaches the last pair. The first team to get the balloon all
the way to the last pair and back (or to a set finish point) without dropping or popping it
wins! No Hands! Players can only use the towel to toss and catch. If the balloon
drops or pops, that pair must go back to the start and try again Be careful! Tossing too
hard might pop the balloon, but too soft might not reach the next pair.

Script:

Alright our next game is called Water balloon-Towel Toss. I need 2 teams with 6-10
members. In this game in each team you should work with a partner to toss a water
balloon using a towel! Teams should line up in pairs, passing the balloon down the line
without dropping or popping it. The first pair starts by tossing the balloon to the next
pair, who must catch and toss it to the next. The balloon continues until it reaches the
last pair, and the last pair will carefully put it onto the bucket using the towel. The first
team to finish without dropping or popping the balloon wins! No hands allowed—only
the towel. If a pair drops or pops the balloon, they go back to the start and try again.
Alright! Are you ready!?
