Chubby bunny...You get partnered up. You put as many marshmallows you can fit in your mouth and talk to your partner. When you get to a point where your partner can't understand you, you have to stop count how many you have in your month who ever has the most wins. Kind of gross though causes some drooling. Ha-ha.
instructions:
Suspend As Many Marshmallows In The Air As Possible**
Set Up
Gather the materials listed below and place them in a box. Provide an area in which team can work. Read the list of construction materials and the team instructions out loud to the team.
Construction Materials
5' length of string
1 bag of large marshmallows
10 rubber bands
5 straws
10 toothpicks
Team Instructions
You have two minutes to devise a method to hold as many marshmallows as possible above ground level. No team member is to be in direct contact with any marshmallows during the scoring process. Scoring begins at the end of the two minute building time. You will receive up to ten points each for creativity, cooperation and communication. You will also earn one bonus point for each successfully suspended marshmallow.
