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

Whenever you are missing the winter you can always pretend it\u2019s snowing by having cotton balls fall from the sky and make it feel like Christmas again.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Supplies” _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

Supplies You\u2019ll Need:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
1. Cotton Balls.<\/b>\u00a0Get a bunch for this game!!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Leaf Blower (With Attachment).<\/b> We used a standard leaf blower and attached clear PVC piping to the end of it. We then cut a hole big enough for cotton balls to go inside the tubing on the side of the PVC pipe closest to the lead blower.<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
3. Tarp.<\/b> This will make your life easier during clean up,\u00a0so trust us and grab a tarp for the ground.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. Helmets.<\/b> We used various\u00a0helmets that we have lying around. Anything to put on the contestants head so they can catch the cotton balls with it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. Shaving Cream.<\/b> We covered our helmets in shaving cream to help the cotton balls to stick to the helmets.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prep:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Prepare and assemble your leaf blower contraptions.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lay out your tarp in the target zone, this is\u00a0where contestants will attempt to catch the cotton balls on their head.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Put a small layer of shaving cream on the helmets.<\/div>\n

Game Play:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n
Set a timer of 60 seconds.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On the hosts \u201cGO\u201d have people constantly launching\u00a0cotton balls from the leaf blower contraptions.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As they are launched the contestants must try and retrieve them using only their helmets.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After 60 seconds the team\/contestant with the most cotton balls on their helmet is the winner<\/div>\n
