PASS THE CUBE





                •   Children work in groups of 6; all make a strong cube
                    with your bricks.
                •   Sit in a circle; place all the cubes in the middle.
                •   Leader picks up one of the cubes and passes to the next
                    child and so on until everyone has touched and passed the
                    cube.
                •   Add another cube to pass around.  Keep adding cubes to
                    see how many you can pass without getting confused or
                    breaking the chain of passes.
