The Happy House Good Choices™ Program

One simple exercise for being worthy of trust would be:

1. Everyone take off their shoes and form a circle with all feet in the center.  It is more like a “ring”.
2. Have one person stand in the middle of the “circle of feet” with his/her arms crossed in front of his/her chest.  Everyone else is seated around with their arms/hands up and ready to catch the guy in the middle.
3. Someone gently pushes the fellow in the center so he falls into the hands of those surrounding him.
4. They toss his body around and around, eventually building up speed.

This game is a blast!  It is a total “trust” game and really fun to do, no matter what age.

Another “Trust” game is:

1. Divide the group into pairs.
2. “A” stands with his back to “B” and then fall backwards into “B’s” arms.
3. Start with very little “fall space”.  Catch “A” after only one-foot of falling.
4. “B” opens the space between “A” and where “the catch” is—eventually “A” falls straight back, almost to the ground, with “B” catching him/her.

This is best to do on a mat, in case “B” loses his/her grip or the weight of “A” is a bit too much.  This is another hugely fun exercise/game.
