- The classic parachute games get a great upgrade with the FlagHouse Superchute! Use our SuperChute Grip parachutes just as you would any traditional parachute, to develop upper arms and shoulders with vigorous, fun exercises, games, and dances. The 1`` foam grips are safer than web handles and promote better grip skills.
Each week we talk to Physical Education and Recreation experts to find new and interesting games and activities using FlagHouse products.

For my preschoolers we do ring around the rosy clock wise with right hand, then counterclockwise with left hand.
I call it popcorn when we put items in the parachute, square foam blocks make resetting much quicker.
Also we do windy vs. breezy when shaking the chute.
Kids' favorite is the tent.
Check out our other parachute videos, we've got another dozen or so activities you could add to your next session!

aww i remember playing with one of these back when i was in elementary school. We played sharks and lifeguards. A couple kids would be the "lifeguards" while a couple were the "sharks" and the rest of us sat with our legs under the parachute shaking it and the sharks would crawl around to try to grab us and pull us under the parachute while the lifeguards had to run over and keep us from getting pulled under. I wonder if kids still play that or something similar.
Yes we do you can trust me
My teacher did the same thing
Cool! Planning a party activities and this will be good for kids. Love love love it
You'll be the best party going when you break out the parachute. Hope your party is a great one!
I came here to find drills for my mom and her students. She is super excited to try out the rubber chicken with her first graders 😂
Amazing! You should check out our deep dive on launching rubber chickens here: czcams.com/video/Dhdyaz_cMys/video.html
I've never heard of this till a comedian said something about it. What happened to regular PE? This looks silly.
Thanks a lot. It was really useful
Awesome! Hope you have a great time playing these games in the future!
These activities are so awesome. I will be incorporating these this summer with my pre-k class.
Amazing! Hope you and your kiddos have a blast :-)
watching this rn because i never really had an opportunity to play with this parachute thing , i gotta say it looks quite fun!
Parachute games are a blast at any age. Here's hoping you can play a game soon!
Trying these activities this Saturday for my sons 8th birthday party. I’ll update on how it went. 👋
Look forward to it! Good luck!
WELL??????
What if you put a rope and tie at the end parachute
You can make a dome too.
Holy shit, this brought me the biggest memory
Good ones we hope!
Awesome video guys.
I was wondering if you take video requests/suggestions or not. I ask because I had a parachute video idea, but didn't know if you guys took ideas from viewers.
Please message me back when you can
We love ideas! Planning our next round of videos next round of videos as we speak, so we absolutely welcome them!
FlagHouse Activity Channel, thank you.
My ideas are below, with a brief explanation about each idea. I suggest if you use these ideas, you may want to use the rainbow colored Superchute, so it will be easy for the kids to see what they are doing.
Ideas include:
1. Mushroom- you guys actually did this one in the beginning of this video. Where everyone holds the edge of the parachute, lifts it up, then takes 2 or 3 steps forwards as the parachute forms a "mushroom" look before floating down. I suggest you don't step backwards when the parachute floats down, but let the parachute float down completely if you use this idea. Moving back can actually cause kids to trip on the parachute or become more tangled in it.
2. Floating Cloud/Lift and Release- you guys did this at the end of the video. Everyone holding the edge of the parachute, then when it lifts into the air, you let go of it and let it float where ever it goes, then start over once the parachute has completely stopped falling.
3. Under the Sea- For this one, everyone gets on their knees, holding the edges of the parachute while making the parachute flat on the ground. A kid goes under the parachute, while everyone -still on their knees- flaps the parachute up and down, creating waves, while the kid under the parachute "swims" to the middle of the parachute. If the parachute has a hole in the middle, I do not recommend the kid stick a body part - head, arm, ect.- into the hole since I could see that, with the flapping being a safety problem. Just have the student say "okay" or something when they reach the middle. After the kid makes it to the middle, everyone stops flapping the parachute. The kid can then stand up and try to get out from under the parachute on their own, unless adult help is needed. If you do this, use a mat to help the kid "swim" under the parachute so they don't get hurt while on the floor.
4. Parachute Tag- For this game, everyone holds the parachute by it's edges. You all lift the parachute into the air, and let someone run under it to get to the other side. However, as the kid runs under the parachute, everyone quickly brings the parachute down to try and trap the kid under the parachute. If the kid makes it to the other side, you continue. If they get trapped under the parachute - where the parachute "tags" them- the kid goes back to their original spot.
5. London Bridge- Although there are many versions, I found one that would be interesting to do. Everyone holds the edges of the parachute, while lifting it up and down, singing the song "London Bridge is Falling Down". Every time the parachute goes up, a kid runs under it -trying to get to the other side- before the parachute falls on them. However, when you get to the part "take the keys and lock her up" the group quickly lowers the parachute to try and "lock" whoever is going under the parachute. You then keep holding the parachute while the kid tries to get out from under the parachute. Once they are out, continue the song, or start over again, repeating the idea.
6. Getting Out- The idea for this one, is for half of the people in the group to go under the parachute, while the other half holds the parachute. You count to 3, but after 3, the kids under the parachute have to try and get out, while the people outside, holding the edges of the parachute, try to make it so the kids don't escape from under the parachute. I suggest using a mat under the parachute for safety if you use this idea.
7. Ghost Tag- a similar game to "Ghost in the Graveyard", the idea is to have a kid or kids - 1 to 3 or 4 kids- go under the parachute and pretend to be ghosts. As the "ghosts" walk around, they have to try and tag the people who are outside of the parachute. If the "ghost" tags you, you and the kid switch, so the person who got tagged becomes the new ghost. The "ghost" must have their head and arms covered by the parachute in order for a tag to count. No hands or arms sticking out. If the ghost's hand touches your hand while under the parachute, that is fine.
I hope this helps. Please reply back and let me know which of these ideas will work for your videos. Thank you.
Wow! Lots of great ideas. We'll see if we can fit any into upcoming videos.
You should submit these ideas to our Activity contest too! You can win gift certificates every month!

FlagHouse Activity Channel, thank you. I can't wait to see if or when you will use my parachute ideas.
Just curious, which ideas did you like the most?
Please message me back
how amazing video. Can you tell me where did you buy this rainbow parachute and how many meters are ? Thank you :)
Hi Andrea! You can get links to all our products in the video description, we make the parachutes in many sizes from 6 feet (2 meters) all the way to 45 feet (13 meters)!
Thanks
YOU are welcome.
What size is the parachute in the video?
This parachute was 24 feet wide! We have them in many sizes from 6 feet up to 45 feet wide!
Do you think a vented parachute is better than a closed parachute like you have? I can't see why makers keep lying to me and showing closed then I get a vented on at the very top
Most of ours are vented too. There is a circular mesh piece in the center.
What size is the parachute being used in the video?
This is our 30 foot wide model. We have them in 12' to 45' sizes on our website. Links are in the description!
When you use a blanket as a parachute how many people should be holding the blanket?
On a standard blanket we'd recommend 4 people (1 per side) to be able to keep the plush toys in play for longer. You could get away with less people with a smaller blanket!
Omg I missed doing this so much it just ain’t the same and now I’m heading to highschool 😭
We are of the firm belief that nobody is too old to enjoy parachute games.
@@ActivityChannelPE yes exactly what I said to my gym teacher I asked him if we could play he said it was only for 1st graders which I believe it’s not cause as long as it’s fun it’s fun and to have fun dont involve or include what age you can have fun at just enjoy yourself and live your life to the fullest ✨✨
how do you get permission to film the students?
Great Question! It's absolutely a challenge for a lot of PE professionals when making these types of videos. All of our participants have legal releases completed by parents or guardians before we film.
*It's 2012 And You And Your Classmates Are In The Gym Playing Pachute Not Knowing in 2021 The Game Is Forgotten / removed from existence*
It will be back! It's so easy to socially distance too! 1 person per color, or only hold the blue parts, etc.
Can you make wind with a Superchute?
Depending on the size of the parachute, absolutely! These come in 6', 10', 19', 24' and 30' sizes. The largest one could probably generate a great breeze with the right team working it!
Am I the only one that NEVER EVER played this game before?😤😭
It's not too late! Parachutes can be enjoyed by people of all ages. SOURCE: czcams.com/video/Dhdyaz_cMys/video.html
Can you use a blanket as a parachute? Just wondering.
You absolutely could! Just make sure you wash it and put it away properly before mom finds out.
FlagHouse Activity Channel great I’ve got 3 blanket 1 which is small 1 that’s medium and 1 that’s a bit big but I have a big blanket with diamonds on it the shape and I have many stuffed animals and plush toys.
FlagHouse Activity Channel hi
