31 Days of Halloween: Day 6: Game Ideas

​Whether or not you are hosting a Halloween party or a family game night, here are some fun game ideas from the folks at Minute to Win It. The games below require minimal setup and could be fun for the whole family. In addition the games listed below, there is a plethora of game blueprints available on YouTube.  

Face the Cookie:

This Halloween minute to win it game will have the whole family laughing, from the children to the adults! Each player will have to balance a Halloween cookie on their forehead.

Using just their facial muscles, they’ll have to find a way to work the cookies down their face and into their mouth! Remember, no hands!

Give It A Whirl:

​Wth an upside down wine glass, players must use centrifugal force to pick up marbles (one at a time) and transfer them into a bowl across the room. The team to transfer the most marbles in 60 seconds wins. For a Halloween twist, decorate the wine glasses with washable paint or use purple and orange marbles

Tea Party:

Prior to game start, attach two tea bags to the hat so that they are hanging from the sides of the bill. When the clock starts, the player attempts to flip both tea bags onto the bill of the hat. To complete the game, both tea bags must be resting on the bill for 3 seconds within the 60-second time limit.

Cantagious:

Stack the 3 empty cans right side up on a table next to the 3 full cans stacked right side up on a table. When the clock starts, the player lifts the empty cans with 1 hand, the full cans with the other. To complete the game, the player, using only their hands, must transfer all three full cans and all three empty cans as described in the video to the opposing tables within the 60- second time limit. 

Sticky Situation:

Place the bread on the platform, 10' from the foul line. When the clock starts, player may begin to bounce 1 ping-pong ball at a time at the piece of bread. To complete the game, player must release a ping-pong ball within the 60-second time limit so that it bounces at least once, then sticks to the peanut butter.
