| Aim: | Blindfold yogurt feeding fest! |
| Stuff needed: | Bin bags (or overalls), yogurt / moose / newspaper for the floor / spoons / camera! |
| Instructions: | You need two victims from each team. Both will need to put on a big bag with arm / head holes so they don't get messy! The first person sits on a chair. The second person is given a pot of yogurt / moose with a spoon and stands behind them whilst blindfolded. The idea is that the person who is blindfolded has to feed the person by following their verbal instructions. Alternatively you could get other members of the team to hold to bowl or give instructions. Once the first pot has been used up, choose some new victims and keep going until the time is up. Remember to cover the floor with newspaper! |
| Time limit: | 5 minutes |
| Points: | Award points based on how much eaten. As a rough guide 2 pots of yogurt = 10 points |
