The FlagHouse SuperChute is a play parachute that can be used in schools, daycare centers, multi sensory gyms, and occupational and speech therapist clinics. A variety of group games and activities can be played with the SuperChute. For instance, a ball or stuffed animals can be placed in the parachute's center and participants can user their upper body strength to shake the parachute, creating a popcorn effect. Also, teams can try to bounce the ball off of the parachute on the opposing team's side. This open-ended activity can be used as an imaginative play prop, to enhance circle games, and with music.
