Materials needed: balloons for each participant and several markers.

Participants form a circle. Each person receives a balloon and a marker. They are invited to represent themselves with a word or image that they draw on the balloon. To keep the process from dragging on, a maximum of 5 minutes is allotted for this.

When one of them touches the ground with their pelvis, they lose and are out of the game. The team that lasts the longest in the ring wins.

No equipment is needed.

We will experience different things that are part of the story.
