Minute to Win It (Achievement Day Style)

I have been an Achievement Day Leader for about a year now. In that time we have done so many fun things. One of my favorites was this Daddy- Daughter Date we had. It was based on the show "Minute to Win It." Of course we started with dinner and potluck salad. Then we moved onto...



Moving an Oreo cookie from your forehead to your mouth without dropping it. It was great fun to watch the girls and their fathers attempting this.


From there we moved onto this gem:


Do you know how difficult it is to keep a feather in the air for one minute? Neither do I! Not one person was able to accomplish this.

Next up we split into teams, and instructed the teams to attempt to retrieve a penny from each leg of a (new) pair of pantyhose. All the while not using your hands to assist. That means- one hand down one leg and the other down the other leg. As you can see it was quite entertaining.




Next each team had to take a stack of red cups with a single blue cup at the bottom. Alternating hands, we instructed them to move the blue cup from the bottom to the top by only moving the top cup to the bottom. It didn't matter who won (mainly because I can't remember) but I know the girls (and the dad's) had fun.

Next and Last with the light fading fast, the girls insisted on this one last game. Using only toilet plungers we instructed them to wheel themselves on a skateboard from one side of the parking lot to the other. Every dad and every daughter did this. The laughing that ensued carried me through the night. I have the best pictures of this and great blackmail for our bishop and Sunday School presidency.
