Materials Needed:

  • Two or more Happy Meals (with a drink for each)
  • Blender
  • Clear plastic cups (one for each player)
  • Napkins or paper towels

Setup Instructions:

  1. Set up the blender and plastic cups out of sight so players don’t see them right away.
  2. Place the Happy Meals in a visible spot where everyone can see them.
  3. Make sure you have napkins or paper towels handy for any spills or reactions.

Game Play Instructions:

  1. Explain that you are going to have a race to see who can finish a Happy Meal the fastest. Ask for volunteers.
  2. Have the volunteers come forward and stand near the Happy Meals.
  3. Bring out the blender and cups so everyone can see.
  4. Blend each Happy Meal (including the drink) until it is smooth, then pour it into a clear cup.
  5. Give each player a cup with their blended Happy Meal.
  6. On “Go,” the players must drink their Happy Meal smoothie. The first one to finish wins.
  7. After the game, provide napkins or paper towels for cleanup.

Additional Notes:

  • Safety: Remind players they can stop at any time if they feel uncomfortable or unwell. Watch for any signs of discomfort.
  • Variations: Try a timed version where players drink as much as they can in a set time (e.g., 1 minute) instead of finishing the whole cup.
  • Alternative Blends: You can mix different types of meals to add variety, but be careful not to blend anything that could be an allergy risk.
