Minute to Win it Games

NBC has definitely made watching TV game shows much more fun with its Minute to Win It show. Seeing its roaring success has made people want to incorporate these games to celebrate special occasions like birthdays, parties, school fests, etc. Well, we thought of adding to the variety of Minute to Win It games that are already flooding the Internet. Use them and you're sure to have a ball of a time.

Blow Balloons
This game is very self explanatory. A number of deflated balloons will be placed on a table. All the contestant has to do is, blow up as many balloons as he or she can in 60 seconds. If it is a team activity, then the person with the maximum number of balloons wins. If it's not, then fix a number of balloons that the contestant must blow up within a minute to win.

Thread the Needle
Another very self-explanatory game. Place a piece of thread on a table, along with many needles that have very tiny eyes. Within a minute, the contestant has to thread as many needles as he or she can. Again, if it's a team activity, then the maximum number of needles wins, and if not, then the number of needles to be threaded must be fixed.

Bottoms Up
This one may sound fun, but it can be a little challenging. Place bottles of water (decide an appropriate number) on a table and ask the contestant to drink the water from all of them, without moving it from their mouths. If the person moves the bottle, he's disqualified. Only after finishing one bottle can he move on to the next one. He must finish drinking the water from all the bottles to win the challenge.

Bubble Blower
This challenge will have your audience laughing like crazy. Give the contestant a bubble blower, like the ones that kids use. What they have to do is, blow a big bubble using the blower and then blow that balloon across the room using their mouth. If the bubble bursts midway, they have to go back to the starting point, blow another bubble and try to take it across the room again. Only if he finishes it within a minute does he win.

Feather Frenzy
Another rib tickling task which is quite similar to the one mentioned above. Give the contestant a feather. When the whistle to start the task is blown, he must place the feather on the ground and using his mouth, blow the feather across the room. He has to chase it around, wherever it goes and follow it until it reaches the finish line, all this within 60 seconds.

Lemon and Spoon
A classic challenge that is played at many races. The contestant has to place a huge lemon on a plastic spoon, keep the spoon in his mouth and take it from the start line to the finish line. But let's give it a little twist. Ask the contestant to do this blindfolded, within a minute. Every time the lemon falls, he must grope around for it and continue.

Fill the Bottle
For this task, you'll need an empty bottle, a soup bowl filled with water and the smallest and lightest plastic spoon that you can lay your hands on. All the contestant has to do is, fill the empty bottle with the water from the soup bowl, using the tiny spoon. Seems easy? Try doing it using just one hand!

Make a Necklace
Get the tiniest beads from an arts and crafts store. Place a long thread and a box of beads on a table. Ask the contestant to make a necklace using the beads and the thread, without using a needle. It's not as easy as it seems. If he uses all the beads, within a minute, he wins!

That was a list that you can definitely use and improvise for your own party. Have fun and keep those ideas coming!
