Minute to Win It

The kids played "Minute to Win It" last weekend, based on a family TV show consisting of several small challenges to each be completed in less than a minute. It all began when I got home from college and showed them the "Stack Attack" challenge I saw in class on Thursday. From there, the boys looked up other challenges and everyone tried them Saturday night! :) Fun time with the family...

"Stack Attack" Stack 36 plastic cups in a pyramid and then take them all down and put them in back into one stack.  
The countdown-everything had to be official!
"Sticky Balls" Roll marbles across the table and get at least 10 to stick to a piece of tape at the end.  
"Bouncer" Bounce ping-pong balls into 20 cups...we had to improvise but it made it easier. 
"Hangover" Balance 6 hangers on each other...the most difficult! 
"Go the Distance" Roll a ping-pong ball on a tape measure into a shot glass from 4, 5, and 6 feet away.  

"Stack Attack"...I think half the challenge is the intense countdown music. :) (Please recall this was Easter break, a time when the house does not stay clean!) 

The boys later found many other things to do with the plastic cups!  
So that was our Saturday evening entertainment last weekend...you never know what you'll run into around here. :) It was great to be with the family for Easter!

P.S. Several people have been asking me about our April Fool's Day...hopefully I can get one of the boys to post about it soon since I wasn't around! :)

Have a good week!
