Throwing and Flipping
Many of the boys (some girls) love the thrill of being either thrown or flipped in the air. They report loving the sensation of shooting up from the water and flying though the air. They seek out staff for a turn and want it repeated over and over again. This activity has proven to be so motivating that staff can stretch engagement longer than usual. Conversations about like and dislikes are discussed, clarification of wether to thrown or flipped is articulated, and relationships are strengthened. In the end, the most important aspect of this fun activity is the amount of practice interacting and relating that is being done, and due to the high level of motivation campers will work harder to get this thrilling experience.
