Quick Overview: \u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Are you ever looking for a game during some of the Patriot Holidays(July 4th<\/sup>, Memorial Day, Labor Day)? Well look no further! This is the game for you. Allow your students to test their multitasking skills as they race others head to head to see who has what it takes to be crowed the Great American Turbine.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Supplies” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_line_height=”2em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

Supplies You\u2019ll Need:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Pinwheels (1 per contestant). <\/strong>Around most of these patriot holidays you can find them at the dollar store in America colors<\/li>\n
  2. Straws (1 per contestant).<\/strong> Use whatever you can find. Make sure it can create suction on a M&M.<\/li>\n
  3. M&M\u2019s.<\/strong> Get the Red White and Blue ones folks! This is a patriot party after all.<\/li>\n
  4. Patriot Containers (2 per contestant).<\/strong> Again the Dollar Store makes this possible. Go all out!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Prep” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_line_height=”2em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

    Prep:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Tape each Pinwheel to the front of your table.<\/p>\n

    Separate the M&M\u2019s into half of your patriot containers.<\/p>\n

    Each contestant should have one pinwheel in front of him or her, two patriot containers (one with M&M\u2019s and one without) and a straw.<\/p>\n

     [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Gameplay” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_line_height=”2em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n

    Game Play:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Collect your constants. We had 4 people face off against each other, but 2 works just as well.<\/p>\n

    Each contestant will have 60 seconds to transfer as many M&M\u2019s from the full container to the empty one as fast as possible BUT there is a catch. You are only allowed to move an M&M while the pinwheel is spinning. The contestants will have to blow the pinwheel hard enough to move a M&M to the empty container.<\/p>\n

    After 60 seconds count up how many M&M\u2019s each contestant collected to determine the winner![\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/funninja.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_4502.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” animation=”off” sticky=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/funninja.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_4503.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” animation=”off” sticky=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/funninja.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_4504.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23″ use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” animation=”off” sticky=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Connect With Us” _builder_version=”3.27.4″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n
