Minute To Win It

Don't know if you have seen the new tv "gameshow" Minute To Win It? It is hosted by Guy Fierti, and has contestant doing 60 second challenges per level to complete 10 levels to get 1,000,000 dollars. Sounds easy huh? The games range from taking a balloon blowing it up and using the air to knock over, off a table, plastic cups. Another game uses marbles to knock over a pencil. There is even a game that consists of 50 plastic cups (1 red and 49 blue ones). This one is played by moving the red cup in a full circuit, starting on bottom and ending up on bottom. In order to do so, one has to move the blue cups from the top, by grabbing them and placing them on the bottom, by alternating hands, while holding onto all the cups.

The reason I am mentioning this show is for all my fellow Children's Pastors out there to see. It gives some great ideas for games to use.
