Snowman Minute to Win it Games

Winter Fun ~ Snowman Blowdart Minute to Win it Game

Our family loves Minute to Win it Games!  They are great for a simple family night or a large crowd.  Plus you probably can use things you already have around the house.  Love that!

The Challenge:

To blow the snowman cup stack off table using a Q-tip and straw.  You need to shoot all the snowman cups off the edge of the table before the 1 minute timer runs out.

Supplies needed:

  • Straws ~ the narrow ones work best.  They should be just larger than a q-tip.
  • Q-tips
  • Plastic cups ~ add black sharpie eyes and mouth and a orange paper carrot nose

Send the kids on a hunt for the supplies…it will keep them busy!  {wink}

How to play:

  • Build a snowman cup tower close to the edge of the table.
  • Get your “darts” and “shooters” ready…the Q-Tips and Straws!  Load your “dart” by placing the Q-tip right inside the straw.  If you are using bendable straws, make sure you insert the Q-tip on the non-bendy end.
  • Instruct each player to stand on the opposite side of the table.
  • Aim the straw at the snowman wall of cups and blow the q-tip
  • The player that successfully removes all the snowman cups off the table wins.

Use as many “darts” as necessary to knock the cups off before the one minute timer runs out.

Since the kids were having so much fun, we decided to have 2 snowman cup stacks happening at one time.  The kids raced against the 1 minute timer and their opponent.
