/ENTER/OFF button.

GAMES
BEAM ROUTINE - In this game, I coach you through several
special beam routines. Simply follow my instructions as you step
on the lighted flowers. The flowers will light up in random order
for you to step on and I’ll also call out other cool balance beam
moves. You have to step on the flowers as soon as they light up
in order to get the best score. If you wait too long, or step on a
wrong flower, you'll lose points from your final score. The object
of the game is to get a "perfect 10" just like in the Olympics!
If two people are playing, "player one" will perform a routine first,
followed by "player two." I'll tell you when it's each player's turn.
You'll keep taking turns until both players have finished all the
routines. Whoever has the best score at the end wins.
FOOT TIED - This is a fun game where I call out a color and you
have to place a foot or hand on that particular flower. This is tricky
though, you have to keep your feet and hands on at least two
flowers. Then you can move your hand or foot from one of the
flowers and place it onto the next color I call out.
The key to this game is to stay on the beam as long as possible. It
may be difficult as you bend and reach around to try to press two
flowers at the same time, but don't be afraid to use both hands
and feet to stay on the beam. The game ends after you complete
the entire routine or if you fall off the beam.

Once again, if two players are playing, you'll take turns and
whoever has the best score at the end of the game wins.
FLOWER FRENZY - In this game, you must quickly step on the
flowers with your foot as soon as they light up. Stepping on the
flower turns them off and another flower lights soon after. Try to
see how many flowers you can turn off in the shortest amount of
time. The more flowers you step on, the better your score.
For two players, both you and a friend will work together and step
on lighted flowers at the same time. How many can you hit?
MUSICAL FEET - In this cool game, you get to create music by
stepping on any of the flowers on the balance beam. It doesn't
matter what order you press the flowers, just step on them to hear
a fun song and create your own routine! Stay on the flowers to
keep the music playing.
For two players, you and your friend both step on the flowers to
create a fun song!
Please note: If you want to exit the game playing, press and hold
the PLAYERS or GAME button.
To turn off the beam, press and hold the "ON/ENTER/OFF" button
for two seconds.
Helpful hint: If you want to start over anytime during a game,
press the GAME button.
Keep practicing! You'll be ready for the Olympics in no time!
