Note to Facilitators:
Be aware that depending on the group, this activity can be somewhat high risk. It is possible to do this with people of all sizes mixed into the same group, but no matter how big or small, short or tall, some people are likely to feel uncomfortable with the idea of getting so close to other people - literally sitting in their lap (or a least on their knees). For some people this can be an issue that they are self concious abou about their weight, they are uncomfortable about other people's personal hygeine, they have a crush on the person whose lap they are about to sit on, or they just don't like people "all up in their business." For activities like this it is important to practice [[challenge by choice]] and not force anyone to participate if they are really uncomfortable. A good role for anyone who chooses not to participate is to ask them to be a spotter to help make sure that before the group sits down they are lined up correctly and once the group does sit that no one falls.
