Thumb Pointing Challenge

Get ready to twist, turn, and point with the Thumb Pointing Challenge—your thumbs will never be the same!

Step 1: Prepare Your Hands

Clench your left fist and give a big ‘thumbs up’ with your left hand. Keep your right hand’s thumb tucked in, ready for action.

With your right hand, extend your pointer finger and point it directly at the raised thumb of your left hand.

Now, switch it up! Move your left pointer finger to point at the right hand's raised thumb. Keep those thumbs moving!

Repeat the switch between these two positions, trying to improve your speed and coordination as you go. The faster and smoother, the better!
