Take small and large marshmellows and uncooked spaghetti.
Grab your friends and family or just yourself.
Set the timer for 15 minutes.
Build the tallest tower you can out of the ingredients.
The boy pretended he was roasting marshmellows.
The girl squished hers together.
After seeing a "blogging moment," the mom spent a few minutes and came up with this:
And the winner was the dad who found this activity in the first place and who had already done it
with one of his college classes at Lindsey Wilson the day before
and tried to recreate what the winning team did in his class.
Therefore, he cheated. :)
What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! This is so great! Once, way back in college, the class was divided into groups of family order (youngest, middle, oldest, only) and given marshmallows and spaghetti and asked to make the tallest structure. It was fascinating- the group dynamics. Oldest were bossy and argumentative, youngest super nicey-nice, etc. So fun to do with your family! btw, the dad one is awesome, haha. xo
