I'VE DON A SIMILAR THING WITH KIDS FOR A FAMILY DAY AT WORK.

FIRST I FILLED A BABY BOTTLE WITH WATER, TOLD THEM TO SUCK THE WATER OUT OF THE BOTTLE AND SPIT IT INTO A SMALL CUP. ONCE THE CUP WAS FILLED THEY MOVED ON. NEXT THEY HAD TO WALK WITH A BALLOON BETWEEN THEIR KNEES TO THE NEXT CHALLENGE, IF THEY DROPPED IT THEY HAD TO START OVER. NEXT WAS A TWO SIDED PUZZLE I GOT AT THE DOLLAR STORE, ONCE THEY PUT IT TOGETHER THEY MOVED ON TO THE LOCK AND KEYS. TAKE THE LOCKS AND LOCK THEM IN A ROW ONTO SOMETHING (MAYBE A ROPE) THEN TAKE THE KEYS AND TIE THEM TO A SEPERATE PLACE WITH ABOUT SIX KNOTS (I USED NYLON ROPE BECAUSE IT WAS EASIER TO UNDO THE KNOTS) ONCE THEY UNTIED THE KEY THEY HAD TO FIND THE LOCK THAT IT FIT. ONCE THEY UNLOCKED THE LOCK THEY HAD TO EAT WHATEVER I HAD UNDER THE CUP, COULD BE ANYTHING I'VE USED GUMMIE WORMS OR BRUSSLE SPROUTS DEPENDING ON THE KIDS. THEN THE LAST THING WAS A BOWL FILLED WITH NUTS AND BOLTS, THEY HAD TO TAKE A BOLT AND FIND THREE NUTS THAT SCREWED ONTO IT. FIRST TO FINISH WON A PRIZE.
THIS WAS A BIG HIT, THE KIDS KEPT WANTING TO DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.
