Family Minute to Win it Game Ideas

I have shared before how much our family loves Family Game Night. Sometimes incorporating board games with a larger group can become difficult. These Family Approved Minute to Win it Games are kid appropriate but also fun with adults (and perhaps a couple cocktails or two!)

Many of these Minute to Win it Games can be done during the Christmas season – in fact, the winter season is the best time to do them because sometimes the cooler tempatures keep you in doors and you have plenty of family members to make the games all the more merrier.

Minute to Win It Saran Wrap Ball Challenge

This is one of my favorite games and I say, you must use full size candy bars (it’s just more fun that way!) Wrap candy until you make a giant Saran Wrap Ball.  First place all players in a circle. One person begins unwrapping the ball and keeps whatever falls out. The player to their left is constantly rolling two dice. Then they roll doubles, the ball is passed to the left as are the dice. The same things occurs.   Once the person to their left rolls doubles the ball gets passed again. This idea comes from Must Have Mom.

Minute to Win It Reindeer Antlers

This is such a silly game. Split into teams of three and give each group 15 to 20 balloons. One person places the pair of pantyhose on their head that have openings at the feet. Either the fastest team to blow up all balloons and stuff them into the pantyhose wins or the team that gets the most in a set amount of time wins! Idea from Party Games Plus.
