Marshmellow Moments

This fun night comes to you courtesy of Megan Connolly, and tested by Blockhouse Bay Company. We are going to do this as our fun first night at GB this week, with roasted marshmellows to finish the night. 

I think the marshmellow drop is going to be lots of fun!

Enjoy xx

 

In advance ask everyone to bring along one bag of marshmallows and collect these at the beginning of the evening. Girls to come dressed in marshmellow colours.

 

Marshmallow Relays

 

• Transferring marshmallows from one side of the room to the other using different means e.g.
• Using suction from straw
• Pushing along the floor with nose
• Balancing on chin/forehead/nose
• Between knees
• In pairs hold marshmallow between hips/stomach 

 

Marshmallow Toss

See who can throw a marshmallow the furthest

 

Fluffy Bunnies

Each participant must first insert one marshmallow into their mouths and say the phrase "Fluffy Bunnies." Each time the individual says it understandably he must insert another marshmallow and say it again. As the game progresses, participants will begin to bow out until there is only one remaining. This game can get messy so be sure to have something for each person to spit out their marshmallows on/in.

 

Marshmallow Structures

See which team can create the tallest/biggest/most creative structure using only a bag of marshmallows and raw spaghetti (or toothpicks).

 

Marshmallow on a String

Four contestants are each given a marshmallow tied to the end of a string. The other end of the string has a knot on it. The knotted end of the string is placed in the student's mouth, with the marshmallow dangling freely. The game is a race to pull the marshmallow to the mouth, without the use of hands. The first student to get their marshmallow, eat it, and spit out the empty string wins. Certain rules against cheating would include that against swinging the marshmallow up in the air and catching it the mouth, letting the marshmallow rest on the ground and picking it up with the mouth, etc.

OR

Hang pieces of string from the ceiling with marshmallows tied to the end. Participants must eat as many marshmallows as possible without using their hands.

 

Marshmallow Drop

Divide group up into teams. Have an adult or leader for each team lay on the ground with protective eye covering like sunglasses. The teams line up about 15 feet away from the leader that's on the ground. Have a bowl of miniature marshmallows and a bowl of chocolate syrup for each team. On go, each player one at a time will pick up one marshmallow, dip it in syrup and run to their “leader” that is on the ground with their mouth open. They will drop the chocolate covered marshmallow in the leaders open mouth while standing over them and go to the end of the line. If the player misses the target he/she must leave it. The winning team is the one that has the least number of marshmallows on the face of the leader or floor.
