This is a cool activity.. would use this as part of a group challenge/ like a Mini Olympics challenge especially with multiple groups trying to recreate a visual code. The group that finishes first gets the most points for example.
As a stand alone activity as well in a competitive manner, it would lend itself to having conversations about strategy, stress/ pressure and its management to ensure successful completion of a task.
