During outdoor time, have four to six children stand in a circle holding hands. One pair lets go for a moment and you slip a hula-hoop on one child's arm. Now they link hands again so that the hoop is between them and their arms are through the hoop. Explain that their challenge is to get the hoop all the way around the circle and back to the starting point without letting go of anyone's hand. They must work together to figure out how to lift the hoop up and over someone's head.
