1st Flitwick Rainbows Change
the world challenge
1st Flitwick Rainbows
chose the Trigger Happy challenge to find out more about asthma.
They chose to do a variety of activities which were suggested in the
activity pack.
We found out how asthma can affect your breathing and undertook challenges
to make ourselves breathless, we also made paper airways to investigate
how hard it is to breathe when our airways are made very narrow.
We found out about things that can trigger asthma and one of our Young
Leaders was able to tell us about her experiences. We played a feely
bag game and a parachute game to identify triggers.
We made a picture to remind ourselves about the importance of asthma
inhalers for people who have asthma and also talked about what to
do if someone has an asthma attack.
To finish our project we held a mini summer fayre for the Rainbows
who enjoyed bringing along their money to spend on ice-cream and various
other stalls and activities including "Beat the Goalie",
Lucky Dip, catch a fish and target throwing challenges. The girls
raised £35 for Asthma UK
Everyone had a great time with this challenge which involved lots
of laughter as well as the recognition that there is a serious side
to it.
