Catch fireflies

Stand very still in the evening air and the fireflies will settle on you. Move, and they scatter.

Catch fireflies

What it works on

Stillness and body control. The fireflies only settle when you stop, so holding a position and waiting are the whole game.

For the player who finds it hard to stay still or to wait: this gives an immediate, kind reason to try. It is also a gentle way to practise noticing what your own body is doing.

Ask for a freeze, count the fireflies that land, then let them scatter and try again. Short rounds work best.
