Hula Hoop

Cindy

Sisi

Daniela


Ana



Reina

After a project was finished, there was just a little tubing left. Nothing goes to waste in Honduras. Dennis, our groundskeeper, took the tubing and a stick and made a hula hoop. The kids are having so much fun with this hula hoop.


Cindy can do it for hours and seemingly not move a muscle. It looks like she is standing there with a hula hoop circling her waist. On the other hand, Sisi moves every muscle in her body. Her arms and head are flailing about recklessly. I have never seen anyone work a hula hoop as fast as Daniela. Some of the other girls have tried to do it fast and they say it hurts. I guess it doesn't hurt Daniela. Katty is so little, but she manages the hula hoop quite well. She is funny. She stands with her feet veryfar apart.


Reina doesn't quite the hang of it yet. She can roll the hula hoop well. I was rolling it back and forth with her. I don't have the hang of it either. I rolled it toward Reina and took off running. I could get to Reina before the hula hoop. For some reason, Reina thought this was hysterically funny and fell on the ground laughing.


No matter the skill level, everyone is enjoying the home made hula hoop.
