Ask participants to form a line, about shoulder-to-shoulder, all facing the same
direction. The facilitator should place the bucket of water at the end of one line and
give the sponge to the first participant. The empty jar or other container should be
placed at the other end of the line. Be aware that this exercise will get people and the
floor wet! Explain that the object of the game is to fill the empty container of water by
soaking the sponge in the water and passing it overhead to the next person, and so on
down the line until the end container is full. Alternatively, you may have participants
rotate places one space after each trip down the line.
