Our Version of Minute To Win It

Ever watch the game show Minute To Win It?  I've seen it a few times.  Some challenges I feel confident I could do, others not so much.  The campground had its first Minute To Win It games Saturday.  It was hilarious to watch everyone compete and try to win.  Adults had their own games to play, while children had theirs.  Players were eliminated during each round, leaving an overall adult and child winner.  My nephew won in the adult category and my son, Logan, won in the children's cateogry.

The first adult game consisted of using a slingshot to aim balls through a hula hoop.

One game consisted of getting as many balls as you could into glasses filled with water.  I made 3 in a minute.  Can't say I'd do so well in Beer Pong!

One game consisted of transferring M&Ms from one cup to another using a straw only.

I did the worst with the M&Ms game.  It's the round that eliminated me.

The funniest game of all was when competitors had to knock down glasses of water with a tennis ball inside a pair of pantyhose tied to their waist. 

My nephew looked like he was Kung Fu Fighter going after an invisible Ninja, trying to knock the glasses down.

One of the kids' games included stacking cups from the top to the bottom using alternating hands.

The hardest one of all had to be one of the kid's games where they had to put a popsicle stick in their mouth and balance six dice atop it.  This was the last round and it was between my two boys.  Logan ended up being the champion.

Have you played similar games?  Have any ideas for future games or challenges we could play?

How fun! We haven't really played many family games yet other than a bean bag toss, but my daughter is a lot younger than your kiddos. Happy Monday!
