Minute to Win It

Ever watched this tv game show? It is hilarious! The players have 60 seconds to complete a random challenge. The best part about this show is that they only use things you can find around the house! Such good ideas for people (like us newlyweds) who don't have much money but still like to do new things with friends. We decided to get together wirh friends over at Scott and Sarah's and try our hand at a few of them.

Here are the ones that we tried, you should too! :)

Toilet Paper Mummy Wrap: Okay, so with this each couple gets a roll of toilet paper. You put a pencil through the middle and have one of the partners hold both sides. The pertner getting wrapped holds the end in their hand and on the count of 3 you all start spinning. The first person to finish the roll of toilet paper wins!

Tissue Paper Pull: The boys did this one and it is pretty plain and simple. Pull out one tissue at a time. The first one to empty the box wins. It might sound easy, but those boys arms were sure cramping up!

Sticky Cotton Ball Dash: For this one you start with one side of the room with a cup of vaseline and a bowl full of cotton balls. On the other side of the room you have a bucket for each player. Start on the bucket side and on the count of 3 you run to the other sice, dip your nose in vaseline and pick up a cotton ball with it. You have to run the cotton ball attached to your nose back to the bucket and shake your head till the cotton ball in. The first person to get 7 wins (we did 5 and it was too fast). Remember, No hands!

Oreo Slide: You start with an oreo on your forehead and use your face muscles and gravity to get the oreo in your mouth. This one was HILARIOUS to watch!

Can Tip: With this you make 2 pyramids of 9 empty soda cans. You sit across the room and shoot at them with rubber bands. The first person to knock all of them down wins!

The last game we played was M&M Sort: Put 5 M&M's of every color into one cup and label empty cups by color. Turn the cup with M&M's in it upside down on the table. On the count of 3 pick up the cup and let the M&M's fall out. You have to sort the M&M's one at a time and sort them by color into the right cups. Easy enough right? You can only use ONE hand and you have to sort them in the order that the cups are in on the table. This one was so frustrating because it seemed so simple but under pressure was harder than you'd think! (We didn't get any pictures of this one because it wasn't very action oriented, but it sure was fun!)
