Get ready

  1. Check for food allergies before you start.
  2. Give each player a paper towel and a few cookies.

How to play

  1. Players tilt their head back and place a cookie on the middle of their forehead.
  2. Start the 60-second timer. Hands go behind the back.
  3. Players scrunch, wiggle, and twist their face to slide the cookie down to their mouth.
  4. If the cookie falls, they can grab a new one and start over.
  5. The first player to get the cookie into their mouth wins, or see how many they can do in a minute.

Tips & variations

  • This is a great one to play in front of the whole group. The faces are half the fun.
  • Use smaller cookies or vanilla wafers to make it easier for younger kids.
  • Have kids chew and swallow before starting the next cookie.
