Step-by-Step Instructions

In advance, cut one or more foam (pool) noodles into a series of small 25mm pieces, and then slice each piece into two semi-circles of ‘finger-snaps.’
By way of demonstration, place one finger-snap between your thumb and index finger, and squeeze it to cause it to pop into the air. If possible, aim to catch it.
Distribute at least one finger-snap to each person, and ask them to practice their popping and catching skills.
After several minutes, ask each person to join with a partner, to launch and catch one another’s finger-snaps simultaneously.
Then, after a few minutes, invite each pair to join with another pair, to make a finger-snapping quad, etc.
Challenge each small team, over the course of several rounds, to pop all of their finger-snaps simultaneously and attempt to catch as many as possible.
Finally, ask each team of four people to join with another team of four to attempt the same task with a group of eight players.
Challenge your group to continuously improve and/or try one of many variations.
