Hanging Apples

Attach a string to an apple and suspend it from the ceiling. Choose someone to try to bite the apple without using hands or arms. It is nearly impossible. This is a hilarious game but it dies after about the second or third individual.

 

Elopement Race

This is a race for boy-and-girl pairs. An umbrella and a closed suitcase containing various articles of men's and women's clothing and accessories are placed on the floor a few feet in front of each couple. At the starting signal, each pair rushes to their suitcase, opens it, puts on all the clothing over their clothes, and raises the umbrella. They then remove all the clothing, close the suitcase, close the umbrella, and run to the finish line. (Clothing should be put on over clothing participants are wearing).

 

Chewing Tug of War

This is a contest for two people. A piece of candy is tied to the middle of a piece of string eight to ten feel long. Each person takes one end of the string in his/her mouth and clasps their hands behind their backs. At a signal, each begins to chew the string into their mouths until one reaches the candy. The person who gets the candy is the winner.

 

Paper Race

Each person is given two pieces of newspaper (folded twice). The object of the game is to reach the finish line by stepping only on newspapers. This can be done by placing the newspapers on the floor, stepping on them, and then shifting the papers and advancing.
