Has anyone had success teaching the double stick version to first-3rd graders? I was shocked at how much they struggled with the single stick passing version.

[@waldorfwonderland8446]

My (early) grade three did the double stick version well... once they got over making a racket with the sticks! :D It was one of their fave activities
